[Merrion]

Welsh looks like it's been encrypted.

[KayJay]

What should it be?

[Merrion]

It's probably right - it just looks like it has been encrypted.

[KayJay]

Guess so. I am not surprised though. I knew a lass named Niamh which was pronounced Nieve. But Horan was Horan, Monahan was Monahan and Declan was Declan (they were all Irish by the way, not Welsh). Can't understand how "AMH" together should sound totally different than 'A", "M" & "H'.

[Spooner]

Can I please say....

No.

In Irish, "mh" and "bh" has a "v" sound.
Eg. Siabh is pronounced "Sive"

None of your business

[Spooner]

Is the difference between the 2 Czech versions really just that one's in capitals? How do you speak in capitals?

edit... sorry, I saw one has a 'u' where the other has an 'i'

[KayJay]

Jamie:

Spooner:

How can my saying or not saying anything and everything along with the causes leading to and consequences arising from, including any and all effects that arise from the consequences and/or repercussions that are percieved (either in the positive or otherwise) by me and others (including you) not be any of my business? Please kindly do elaborate.

Regards

KayJay

By the way, the Irish should be :

Tá mé i ngrá leat

'Táim' is "I am", but means sortof longterm, or that "I always am".
"Tá mé" on the other hand just means I am, without being so specific.

So you would use one form if you just wanted a leg-over, the other if you wanted a long-term relationship, like a leg-over at the weekend too?

[plenderj]

heheh nah nothing that complicated.
Saying táim just doesn't really make all that much sense... gramatically that is...

[plenderj]

Ya know so if you wanted to say "I am here" :

Táim anseo = I am here
Tá mé anseo = I am here


But the first would mean sortof that I am here, usually or always.
So if you were somewhere every day or had been for a long time you might use that.

"Tá mé" would just mean "I am" without being so specific.
But one could also say :
"Tá mé anseo gach lá" which means "I am here very day".


So 'Táim' is more like... a present continual tense of the present tense ya know ?

[KayJay]

All thats fine and well. The point is "Can I please say, VBF, I Love You" ?

I wish you would pay attention. I already told you "No!"

[KayJay]

I most fervently wish that your good self also spends as much time on paying attention as you would like me to pay, given the fact that two points raised by me (one of then in response to another one raised by you) have been either glossed over or ignored or have been just plain missed out by you, leading me to repeat the question "Can I please say, VBF, I Love You" and should it not be possible by me, as requested earlier may I again ask why cannot I, and should it not be any of my business (as pointed out by your esteemed self), pray please do answer why.

[Spooner]

I give up already. Tell us, then.

[KayJay]

I am extremely and most sincerely grateful to you for having provided me with the requisite permision to profess my deepest and hearfelt love for VBF notwithstanding the fact that you have forced me to be convoluted, verbose and prosaic across a sizeable period of time for something, as pointed out above, that is very sincere and heartfelt and have had to repeat my request in many varied forms and words, as is evident in my previous posts, though I must request you to kindly please note that I am forever deeply indebted to you to have finally permitted me to say

VBF, I love you

[Spooner]

Can you say this in any other languages, by any chance?

[arsmakman]

The Dutch "Ik ben verliefd op jou" is not right.

Translated that is: "I'm in love with you." And that would be gay (or something else, I don't thinks there's a word for website-love).

(Contact ad: Man seeks Website. )

[KayJay]

arsmakman : "Ik ben verliefd op VBForums" (think what U want!)

spooner: ehm....ahem.....err......you really want me to....uhm...say that in many different languages....ahem....ehm...you sure?
