That's not fair! I have no idea what you're saying! I just pasted in some random thing I found in Google and hoped it meant what it said it did.
Translation, please?  _________________ "Those that wish to be clean, clean they will be; and those that wish to be foul, foul they will be." |

First thing's first. What did you hope it would mean?  |

Well I just typed "English to Lebanese Arabic" into Google and this was one of the first things that came up:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090724210624AAkyeKK
I thought it would make you laugh!
Did they translate it properly, or did they mess with it and do it wrong on purpose?
(Personally I would NEVER trust some random person on Yahoo to do an accurate translation). _________________ "Those that wish to be clean, clean they will be; and those that wish to be foul, foul they will be." |

Good idea for a thread all_white. So I'm making this a temporary sticky thread. If it goes well it *may* be made a permanent sticky. _________________ - signature - |

It's alright, all_white. No need to panic. It actually made me smile and laugh.
That girl was correct except she should've used a better word for "adore" like "be3sha2ak" cause the word she used could mean "worship" and I know you don't worship the devil.
Anyway, I was surprised when I first read that from you as it was too perfect to be just an online translation. So I assumed you had some Lebanese friend helping you out there ...
But what I said is that you are the moon and everything that's beautiful in this world is beautiful because all of it springs from you.  |

It's alright, dear. Just forgive me for this faux pas.
And have a good sweet night. I'm off to sleep. |

Oh dear! No, I certainly did not wish to say I worshipped anyone but God! I am definitely a Christian!
I am glad I made you laugh.
That was a very poetic compliment you paid me (although I must decline to accept it because all things do not spring from me at all; they spring from God, but that's a whole other story that belongs in PPR!)
Is Arabic always that flowery? I wish I could speak more languages.
I once dated a Moroccan and I remember how to say "let's go" and "awww, pleeease?" and "you're beautiful" but that's all he ever taught me. And I don't know how to write them down. I only know how to say them. _________________ "Those that wish to be clean, clean they will be; and those that wish to be foul, foul they will be."

Why do you say it's hard for you to relax? I used to get way too intense at times, finding ways to just relax and give myself a break did wonders in that respect  _________________ "Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live" (Oscar Wilde)

I have just have a lot of stuff to deal with recently (cheating ex, eviction, finding out I probably have AS) and I tend to be in a constant state of worry.
Maybe I should have a hot bath and paint my toenails and light some candles. I haven't had a bath for ages! <----Edit: I realise this could be misconstrued to mean I do not bathe. I do in fact wash myself regularly!
How do you relax, Sallamandrina? _________________ "Those that wish to be clean, clean they will be; and those that wish to be foul, foul they will be." |
