Tai "bendrosios prasmės" vertimo prašymas. | iyi akÅŸamlar seni kovalasın tavÅŸanlar | | Originalo kalba: Turkų
iyi akşamlar seni kovalasın tavşanlar |

| Good evening, and may rabbits chase you. | | Kalba, į kurią verčiama: Anglų
Good evening. | | The literal translation is, "Good evening, and may rabbits chase you," but this is a rhyme commonly used by students in Turkey. The meaning is only "Good evening," but the second half is added on just because it rhymes. By the way, the original uses much stronger language - this is the softened version. In the original version, the verb is not "chase". |

Paskutinės žinutės | | | | | 13 gruodis 2008 16:20 | | | Kafetzou, your comments are correct. It just means "Good evening". But I wonder if there is such a saying -of course not the same but close to this one- in English. ??
And I guess the Danish version should be edited. CC: Anita_Luciano | | | 13 gruodis 2008 16:27 | | | sleep tight, don´t let the bedbugs bite ;-) | | | 13 gruodis 2008 16:34 | | | Super! Thank you Lunatunes! | | | 13 gruodis 2008 16:44 | | | you are very welcome :-) Anytime :-) Luna | | | 13 gruodis 2008 18:04 | | | Oh yeah - good suggestion, lunatunes! | | | 13 gruodis 2008 18:06 | | | Should we add it Kafetzou? or just leave it as it is? | | | 13 gruodis 2008 18:14 | | | That would be great to rhyme with "Good night", but not with "Good evening", and I guess you can't change the greeting, can you Kafetzou? | | | 13 gruodis 2008 18:20 | | | Oh - right - that's true. I was thinking of the other Turkish one: "İyi geceler - kovalsın (or worse) seni cüceler." - Good night, and may dwarves chase you (or worse). | | | 13 gruodis 2008 18:28 | | | When translating it literally, there is no rhyme. So "sleep tight, don´t let the bedbugs bite" is still my favourite. | | | 13 gruodis 2008 18:50 | | | well, since I was the one who asked for the translation from turkish, I guess you don´t have to add it to my requested translations :-) Thanks to everyone for all the help. This site ( and its people) has really helped me a lot lately ;-) If I can help with anything please don´t hesitate to ask.. hope you had a nice turkish holiday the last 4-5 days and best wishes for the upcomming christmas in the states and in Brazil :-) Luna |
