hug you really strongly is awkward and not the best English. Can you re-work it a bit?

Thanks,

David

Fine! now, according to the French version , this translation into English is validable with "tightly". I'll edit, then let you validate it. Thanks a lot folks!

Hmm...You know Franck, we still can't say for sure that either this text or the French one exactly reflects the Vietnamese, because I think Lilian translated the French text into English (I don't think she can read Vietnamese?
So we are still just trusting that wattier has really translated the Vietnamese correctly, with no independent validation?
Or did you have another way to check his text independently, that I did not know of?

PS: Does "je t'embrasse très très fort" in the French here best translated as
I hold you so so tightly in my arms
or
I kiss you strongly, passionately
?
To hold you in my arms
to me would be in French
Te serrer dans mes bras
and not
T'embrasser....
Or is that just the way we use the verb "embrasser" in Québec?
