What a bunch of bunk
Published (2009-11-21 23:53:00)
Yes Europfranc is right - all though I might have said 'rubbish' or 'baloney'. (ie you understand what they are saying - you just think it's stupid). 'Bunk' = 'bunkum' (if that helps at all).

I regretted having done this

Ciao Wynnie almost perfect. Dopo ho rimpianto di averlo fatto . PS: Attempt = tentativo; intento means intention Bye!

I think you're right, it means "spiga" (corn is not orzo , it's grano oppure mais ) I think. Tommy, do you mean a head of corn (spiga)?

bonds were oversubscribed
Published (2009-11-21 20:49:00)
The government of Sao Paulo sought a loan in London and bankers rushed to supply money: bonds were oversuscribed within minutes: voi come mettereste: "le obbligazioni furono sottoscritte in eccesso" , " si verificò un eccesso di sottoscrizioni di obbligazioni" o "la domanda di sottoscrizioni superò l'offerta di obbligazioni"? Maybe the last one?

Always-already
Published (2009-11-21 18:56:00)
I see from your Wiki article it's used in French. Looking up "toujours déjà" I see it cited in the same references, Therefore this might be close to "Sempre gia'"

Plain surfaces
Published (2009-11-20 19:42:00)
Sometimes "plain" means unattractive, and this might be the meaning here. WR gives "scialbo"; I honestly don't know that word but at least maybe it can get you on the right track?

...meanwhile back to the ranch
Published (2009-11-21 22:56:00)
Quote: 'Mary and John were in Spain, Ann and Mark were in Greece and meanwhile back to the ranch we were taking care of their kids' . To me the intended meaning of that sentence is, "........ meanwhile, back in Manhattan we were taking care of their kids", so the use of 'to' in that sentence is very strange; it should be an 'at'.

slab gab
Published (2009-11-21 16:44:00)
Ciao, Che frase! "gab" = parlare "slab" = si riferiesce alla tomba (slab of marble) "slab gab" = la cerimonia del funerale. È una costruzione che fa rima - sl ab g ab

It is possible to imagine a case where it means that. Suppose that you believe that what people are doing stinks. Then by holding your nose and going about your business, in effect, you are ignoring their behavior in the same way someone does when they turn a blind eye.

Sorry do you know what does it mean this?

Context:
What a bunch of bunk - The actual facts that one can distill from this utterly biased description indicate that Ms. Knox was certainly involved in a murder. I think the problem here is bigotry all right, but not Italian bigotry, rather the bigotry of those who think that only New York art experts ...

Puoi dire in entrambi questi modi:

La prima ha uno stile un po' più ricercato.

It could be " board basis ". On some websites I also saw "formula": for example, "You can choose between our full-board and half-board formulas". I'm not sure, but I hope that helps!

Hello, I first came across the word famiglio in a novel, referring to people who lived and worked on the grounds of a monastery but who were not monks. Here is Wikipedia's article about it, so I understand what it is (the meaning I am looking for is in the very first paragraph, the one about the feudal families). But the link to the English article is only about witchcraft (a " familiar spirit...

After Billy dies, of course, then you're faced David, with bringing in somebody else as a love interest and did it I think, masterfully with Robert Downey Jr. At a time, in all candor, in his career and personal life, when it was a bit of a risk I think it's safe to say, right?

Dopo che Billy è morto, naturalmente, ????(ti sei guardato in faccia?), con l'apporto di qualcun altro come ...

Ciao a tutti!
Dovrei tradurre "Anche quest'anno ho scelto di devolvere un contributo alla Fondazione XXX".
Ecco il mio tentativo:
"This year too I decided to make a contribution to the XXX Foundation".
Cosa ne dite? Ho un dubbio sulla correttezza di "This year too".
Se dico "Once again this year" potrebbe significare anche che sono state fatte diverse donazioni nello stesso anno (il 2009) e ...

...and it was just like this great world to live in.
Ed è il modo giusto di vivere in questo grande mondo.
Elenca un sacco di pregi di una persona, il suo modo di fare ecc. e conclude con questa frase.
Io penso di averla interpretata in modo corretto.
Però mi sembra strano che all'inizio viene usato il verso al passato.

Actually here it's pretty to close to "not at all". It's a cockney sort of way to say not half, which in this instance means not even a little.
