No, I couldn't. That time is long gone now. I just feel more pleasant with spanis, rather then turkish language. And I like actresses more, to be honest.

The sentence is a little bit unclear, I don't even understand it in Croatian.
But I'll try.

No, but the man knows there are no Bosniaks. Or No, but the man knows there are no such thing(s) as the Bosniaks.

And I'm not familiar with the derogative term for the Bosniaks, I must tell you, but here it is.

I ll explain tomorrow, ok?

OK. I feel like I'm in high school again.

I have learned english language not at high school, but at institute. It is obvious.

Thanks!

You have perfetcly meaningful sentences from my point of view, but you should do some work on your grammar. ;)

Dudu is an original renaissance character, like Leonardo da Vinci.

Fluency in English is obvious proof.

Only jokeing, do i have to stick smileys every time or not?

English for beginners.

I hate breaking news. Allways think that's something about Serbs, whatever happened.

Snowflake it is a little unclear and I think it is just a fragment.

I think since the sentence has an informal term for Bosniaks then I think we can use an informal term for "man".

So here's my translation: "no but the guy knows that Bosnje (Bosniaks) don't exist"

dudu: Wow that is painful on the ears. I think she should have given the announcement in Serbian. If my speaking skills were so so for an announcement like that I would just speak in my native language.

Offtopic: Here is a perfectly good reason why we should do what other groups do and have an English language bureau for HRT and Croatian TV in BiH and have all of the journalists be native or near native speakers of English. With the size of our Croatian Diaspora in English speaking countries like Canada, Australia and America, we might be able to recruit a few journalists. Having something like that would be invaluable for Croatia and Croatians and not to mention easier on the ears.

I think she actually spoke in her native language.

What is "script writing"? I can`t find propper translation for that term.
A person from Ireland told me that she will send me a homemade card with "script letters". I know what it`s mean and how its looks like, but what is propper croatian word/s for that? "Krasnopis", "Pisana slova"...?? I dont think so...

Bobovac: I think she is referring to cursive writing (Hr kursivan). Script writing is a movie term and a script writer would be a scenarist in Croatian.

I will tell you an anecdote. A butcher told me (well not me, one of my acquaintances) that pork was going very, very well, and that Muslims were his main customers, he also added that the Muslims asked him to wrap the pork in such a manner that nobody would be able to see/could see what they were carrying.

When retelling somebody else's words in Past Simple, you are advise to follow these rules.

You said: I butcher told me...
Alternatively, you could say I butcher tells me...
There isn't any semantic diffrence, but the you don't have to obey sequence of tenses.

Translate:


(try to use not more than 100 seconds, which should roughly correspond to speaking fluently)

time is up.

There is no way everyone can get there in less than 3 hours, after all the weather is going to get worse and he doesn`t have proper snickers for rain, neither Cody. You can drop us with car and we can hang out with Veronica by the way. Concerning Robbie, I get along with him since I`ve know him.

I just hope you can understand my thought.

Hohoho. Well, I must say that I like my way better. Just kidding.

No, but, I was retelling the story in the way the butcher told it to me. When you say "were", "asked" and such, I have a feeling that it is something that happened, and that won't happen again. Like, "Muslims were his main customers". I don't know, somehow that just don't sit in my ears.

Because, muslims are still his main customers, and when you say "where", it sounds like that time is in the past. I had that dilemma first time.

Not bad this time, quite well.



Not everyone can (manage to) get there in less then three hrs, not to mention the weather that is getting worse (alternative: after all the weather is getting worse) and he doesn't have proper shoes/sneakers for rain, neither has Cody. Drive us with your car, and we can hang out with Veronika by the way (/in the mean time). Speaking of Robbie, I've been getting along with him since I got to know him.

Sorry for changing the tense će se pogoršati -> progoršava.

Robbie speaks english better than Dudu does.
