Gosh... I wouldn't use that translator again, if I were you. It's all wrong! Here are the ones I know: Hello – halo Haló, but that is "hello" as in "hello, anyone there?". I think the word you are looking for is the equivalent of "hi", which would be Ahoj (to people you know), or Dobrý den. Please – být příjemný Prosím Thank you - být zavázán tebe Děkuji Do you speak English? – Činit tebe mluvit Anglicky? Mluvíte anglicky? We do not understand - My činit ne dovídat se Nerozumíme Help! – přispét! Pomoc! (I think...) Pleased to meet you - Být příjemný až k potkat tebe Těši mně How are you? - Jak se máte? Wooo, correct We do not understand Czech - My činit ne dovídat se Čech Nerozumíme česky, or Neumíme česky - we don't know czech, or nemluvíme česky - we don't speak czech. How much is it? - Kolik to dělá? Kolik to stoji?
Thanks! I certainly won't be using that translator again! :? Does any one know whether: Do you serve vegetarian food? - Činit tebe sloužit vegetarián jídlo? Where is the train station please? - Kde is člen určitý cesta vlakem postavení být příjemný? Where can we buy a…. - Kde pocínovat my koupit jeden Where is the toilet please - Kde is člen určitý toaleta být příjemný? Can we have the bill please? - Moci my mít člen určitý žaloba být příjemný? are correct? And also, is dobry den also for people you know? I will need it in a context of never having met them before!
Do you serve vegetarian food? - Činit tebe sloužit vegetarián jídlo? Podáváte vegetariánská jídla? Where is the train station please? - Kde is člen určitý cesta vlakem postavení být příjemný? Kde je nádraží, prosím? Where can we buy a…. - Kde pocínovat my koupit jeden Kde si můžeme koupit ...? Where is the toilet please - Kde is člen určitý toaleta být příjemný? Kde je WC, prosím? Can we have the bill please? - Moci my mít člen určitý žaloba být příjemný? Zaplatíme, prosím. are correct? No way! Just throw the translator to the thrash! And also, Quote: I think the word you are looking for is the equivalent of "hi", which would be Ahoj (to people you know), or Dobrý den. is dobry den also for people you know? I will need it in a context of never having met them before! Dobrý den is neutral, always use when you meet someone for the first time. You can use it for neighbors, colleagues at work etc. as well.
Probably not correct, I'm just not sure what they should be... (just a beginner) I'll try anyway: Do you serve vegetarian food? Máte vegetariánská jídla? (literally "do you have...", don't know the word for serve, but I think this is what you should be asking anyway...) Where is the train station please? Kde je vlakové nádraží? Where can we buy a…. Kde můžeme koupit ... Where is the toilet please Kde je záchod Can we have the bill please? Zaplatíme! I stole some of these from www.locallingo.com, I suggest you check it out as well! "Dobrý den" is a formal greeting that you can use in any context, I think.
The programmers of that translator have their work cut out for them. :shock: Just for future reference, what was the name of that translator? (just so we can tell others to avoid it)
