umm Babel Fish doesn't like Finnish, in fact all of the web's online translation services don't seem to like Finnish?  :;):

I don't suppose you could provide the translation for us.

If something's bothering you about the way development is done it would be nice to know.

Yes, well... Language with little over 5million speaking people isn't high on the languages to translate. Even more so that finnish isn't even a easy language.

Eg. of, for and so forth are actually added into word (there 14 different endings to words).

In the grand scheme of things, 5 million people really isn't a lot.

Yes, a translation would be appreciated, even if it is just a rant.  :D

Gah I have difficulty with English and that's my native language!

Hats off to all of you who communicate in a non native language on these boards. I must say I have no aptitude for foreign languages and found it extremely difficult to learn our compulsory one at school (French)

It seems that Intertran is not all it is cranked up to be! Much is "lost in translation" - including any semblence of coherent thought (assuming of course that the first sentence actually had a meaning originally :p )

1. 'Iddu, me ollaan pelattu n?ill? aina ja mei?n mielest? n?? on ihan hyvi?.' T?m? en yleinen vastaus. Eli toisin sanoen, koska et ole pelanut armeijaa vastaan vuosia tai kertonut siit?, et voi sanoa ett? jokin on liian hyv?. Mit?s v?li? sill? on ett? vertailulla tai sen n?kee peliss?. Ihmiset eiv?t tietenk??n sopeudu asioihin, mik? ei sitten my?sk??n vaikeuta tasapuolisuuden n?kemist? niill? jotka armeijalla pelaavat.
comes out as 1. 'Iddu , we be gamble n?ill? ever and mei?n thoughts n?? is glorious much This en rife reply. Or unlike saying , as et ole hand army versus year or describe siit? et butter speak that some is too good. What mid because is that compare or its bye match. People not tietenk??n adapt asioihin , what no ago either aggravate objectivity bye niill? which army gambling.
LOL :O ?:laugh: ?:p

Enderel got it right - hats off to those non-english speakers who are both brave enough to post here and able to communicate their thoughts

Yup, translation please!

No point ranting if we can't debate?

There's 400,000 Maltese speakers....... ?:p
I could probably try a Finnish to Maltese translation, if anyone wants it....  :p  :p

I would quess that the point of ranting is not debating ... it's to let go and then mellow out :D.

I've found this fairly effective recently. :)

Bravo!  Hear Hear!  I don't know what the devil you just said up there, but hey, the more people ranting, the more discussions we get to have about it!  :p
