Hi (amer.) Cheers (Birt.)! how are you?
(Its) Nice to meet you!
I speak English Poorly/ My English is bad. Do you know/speak Russian?
We can conrrespond using Latin letters.

no offence meant, but i hope you are better at translating the things you do at work than simple conversation. i was surprised at the awkwardness of your translation and by the very simple mistakes. are you still a student or are you a trnaslator? seriously, no offence. im just curious.

Do not take it that way. He/she tried to be adequate to the style of a poor English speaker and did it nicely.

gogolesque,
ha-ha-ha! That's what I'm here for - to mock at single-mindedness!

does the asker want bad english or is the asker asking how to translate these simple things? we dont know. but since the asker didnt say it should be in "bad english" i assume he really wants to translate them.
who knows, ... only the asker i guess.

I do not know either.

2 Supa Traslata - re single-mindedness: oh, just imagine yourself being mocked at like this and not knowing a WORD in foreign language. it's not a humor forum, so if you want to help - DO help. However, I've never seen you doing this...

Дискуссия навеяла:

В середине 90-х, когда трава на той стороне была намного зеленее и народ активно пасся на европейских рынках, одно турагентство, релкамируя по центральному ТВ свои услуги, давало такие языковые рекомендации при собеседованиях с персоналом магазинов:

"- Есть ли у вас скидки?" = Is any discount?"

Это была не шутка.

Вероятно, ожидаемый утвердительный ответ должен быть такой:

"- Is" :))

gogolesque,
I'm not in the circus to say it's a joke each time I want to crack one.
The best jokes are made with a serious face and without a warning. With your nickname, you should know that.

Supa....
but on this kind of forum those kinds of jokes arent so funny - especially when it can mean someone's job.
sorry to tell you, yes i have a fun nik on the forum, but i take translation seriously and dont want anyone to have problems because i decided to have a little joke at their expense
