Hey Whats this mean, i know its to do with fotos.



si, mandame las fotografias



Offerd to send him some images, wark out the first and last bit, but not the mandame bit

Without gong into the vagaries of Spanish grammar, it's simply 'send me'.

Translated : yes, send me the photos.

Saludos compañero!

Loosely, "yes, send me the photos".

But you already knew that. ;-)

Thanks everyone, that word threw me. I jnew the guy i was Spanish, and i write what bit i can in Spanish, the rest in English, most people write back in English knowing im just trying my best but never had a guy completly write in Spanish back

"Yes, send me the photographs."

Cheers!!!

Fun isn't it? I had a buyer in Germany recently and I told him I could read and write a little Deutsch. I ended up using my knowledge and my dictionaries on his answers! Actually, I enjoyed that. I also found out that folks aren't always grammatically correct in other languages, too. :)

Ahhh, Bill. German isn't gramatically correct even in GERMAN!

My English grammer is poor, lived in Spain, so can speak it a fair bit, but to read/write it i find certain words throw me, i could understand his sentance but hadnt come accross that word. I also dated a girl from Slovinia, so learnt how to say and read quite a bit, helped when i lived in London again later but back to my home town there wasnt much use.

Hmm, my Czech picked up a bit with the help of a nice lady a couple of years ago but she moved on to Kall-ee-fornya. There just weren't enough Czechs in the area - too many Germans and Poles. ;)

I think what's throwing you is that 'mandame' is really three words in English. Manda- = send [3rd person singular present tense of mandar].

-me = to me [indirect object pronoun tacked onto the verb]. Or maybe someone with better skills with Spanish grammer can be more precise, and no, I no longer have any ideq what this has to do with scale modeling.

Or more literally in Spanish - from "la mano"; for "the hand", to form the verb "mandar" - "to hand"; "mandame" = "hand me" or "pass me" in the litteral sense. But that's pure speculation on Spanish verbal origin on my part...

Entonces, "si, mandame las fotographias" might litterally translate to "yes, hand me the photos" en Ingles.

y meaculpa de olvidar los accentos...;)
