225.0. "Norwegian Translation?" by MUNED3::BEARDSWORTH (Crayfish = Parallel Processing Crustacean) Mon Jul 13 1987 09:28

    Hi, being British and living in Munich, I cant handle Norwegian!
    I got a postcard from a norwegian girl, and she said I should get
    the sentence on the front translated; who can help?
    
    'Det kan ikke v�re tilfeldig at du og jeg er p� samme planet samtidig!'
    
      it can not? true?   ?    that you and I are ?  same? planet   ?
                                                   
    As you can see, I think I know a couple of the words, (similar to
    german) but cant gather the whole meaning! Who is going to put me
    out of my anguish??

225.1Translation while you waitMAY20::MINOWJe suis Marxist, tendance GrouchoMon Jul 13 1987 10:148
The translation is:

   "It can't be an accident that you and I are on the same planet at
    the same time."

Perhaps your new friend could put you out of your anguish.

Martin.
