Dame de coeur
"antis" wrote in message ... Since you don't speak Dutch you may as well go to Google and find how to translate the original message by Rien, from where the quote came. Which roughly translated means: *If you ask more questions in this newsgroup, do that then in English, this an English speaking newsgroup and if you do so then it gets you more and faster answers* I guess it pays to read the entire content of something - and understand it - before we appoint ourselves to the grand jury... Allegra Thanks Allegra. You understand very wel what i meant to say. The way you speak Dutch,is the same way I speak Englisch. I do understand the mening of the messages but i am not always able to answer. Greatings, Rien. (The Netherlands) (and yes, i have a dictionary next to me!!!!) Hello Rien, When you speak a couple of languages as I do and have traveled around the world a couple of times as I have, the first thing you learn to do is to read with your heart and then with your eyes. It may be naive and old fashioned, but I come from an era of gentility and respect for others that demands that I act that way. I would have never for a second suspected you of a prejudiced or jingoist answer, I knew you were trying to help someone and had to do so with very limited options. You are most welcome, and once again thank you for explaining to Marian that it wasn't that -I, for instance- was ignoring her request for help, it was that I didn't know even with the dictionary how to ask her where she was or tell her how to take care of the Queen of Hearts without confusing the heck out of her. How are your roses doing? Best wishes for them and you from a surprisingly dry day in Portland, Oregon Allegra |
