Poker je přece o sázení nebo ne !? Tak, vsaďte 50 mozků a vezměte fleka !
Budou dvě sekce o pěti hráčích. Každý s každým bude hrát dvě hry. Vítězové obou sekcí postoupí do finále.
Hráč na prvním místě získá 300 mozků, druhé místo bude odměněno 50 mozky - tudíž dostane nazpět svou sázku.
Mozky si můžete zakoupit na této stránce. Dyť je to jenom 150 korun za stejný počet mozků. Pak je navíc můžete rozmnožit a koupit si členství výhodněji.
2 dny na tah, jenom víkendové dny jsou volné. (žádná dovolená)
Salongo: Thank you so much! Could I just ask one more favor? Could you translate the name of the tournament into Czech too? "Triple Dice Poker *6D* for Brains"
I ask if somewhere the translators web sites had been evaluated. If yes would you tell the address, else would you tell which you recommand?
Recently I used "Babel fish" (french --> spanish) with sometime lame, sometime funny, odd translations. I know there isn't a perfect translator. I just ask if exists a less dubious translator ;-)
P-G: If you use Firefox, there is a neat add on called Hyperwords that has a decent translator. I use it quite often. It doesn't have every language, but it is very convenient. I simply highlight the text I want translated and a menu pops up, and I choose "translate" and it changes the highlighted text to the language I requested, right on the page. (No need to go to another website) It is certainly not perfect, but I, personally, am very happy with it.
You need to be using Firefox as your browser, however.
P-G: I use Google's translator. Seems to work good for German and Spanish into English and vice versa, though I don't have a direct way to know for sure.
AlliumCepa: I was wondering what a person had said to me in russian last night but I have got an answer now,.thank you,.but I do need a better translator
A friend of mine has a webcomic he wants to get translated to as many useful languages as possible (id est, languages people will really read the comic in, unlike Latin, Old English, Irish, &c.). The comic is here: http://www.concessioncomic.com
He already has Spanish (Spain and America), Hebrew, French, German, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese. If you like the comic (he only wants fans), send him an e-mail. Thank you =]
OK, awhile back I joined a Dutch only game site, and had the following phrase translated for me:
I only speak English
Dutch: "Ik spreek alleen Engels".
Well now I went and joined a German language game site, and would like the same translated to German. I would like to get that into my profile there so people don't think I'm rude or something when I don't reply back to them. Thanks.
Subject: Re: could someone please translate into English
TheCrazyPuppy: I haven't had much luck tracking down a translation. The "juden" translates to Jew in a couple of languages. Spilensi and spilen seem like related words to my eye. Knowing the language it is written in woiuld help a lot. Or if it is spelled correctly. I'll ask someone that has rejoined the site.
I am trying...I stress,TRYING to learn German....are there any foreign language teachers here or someone that has the patience of a Saint,lol...that can give me some tips to make this learing a bit easier?? We are using audio CD's that I have loaded into the puter AND iPod so I can listen to them all the time..I can see the word,know the word,say the word..but when it comes to having a conversation with the woman I am learning with..I totally blank out!! Feel free to PM me...thanks!!
anastasia: I took two years of German in highschool, but I doubt if I know one hundred words. I got so discouraged with all the words for "the". People can complain about English all they want to, but when it comes to articles in English, there's just two. A definite one and an indefinite one; "the" and "a". Whereas German has at least five! Der, die, das, den, dem. and that's just for "the", "a" gets the same business too, ein, eine, einen, and things I can no longer remember. :) The whole business of gender for nouns seems ludicrous to me too. I guess it makes learning Spanish easy if you're already are used to having the article with the noun, as Spanish also has this gender and tense grammar stuff to deal with too. I wonder if the gender is the same in those languages? If not, then it might be hard depending on how many differences there exist. Here I just learn the word, like say the word is "table". That's it There's no masculine, feminine, or neuter to learn. It doesn't matter if it's now, tomorrow, or yesterday. Or if it's your table, my table, or somebody else's table. It's either that table, or any table. I was told that Japanese doesn't even have articles. I'm willing to bet for a Japanese person, English might have that one thing easier to learn than German or French, but maybe not.
For me, German seemed like a needlessly complex language, but I'd say the main reason I didn't learn it was I had no one to speak it with. I should've taken Spanish. It's almost the main language around here in Santa Ana. It gets equal or even primary billing in a lot of places and venues. Plenty of people I meet daily don't speak English but know Spanish. I could probably speak it every day with someone. And there's newspapers and television stations in Spanish that I could also use to learn it. But German has the beer drinking songs, and that's where my heart was even before I liked beer! :)
I would definitely find people that you can speak German with if you want to learn it. There's bound to be a German club or group in your area. They should be able to help with learning German. German has dialects like American English has them. Maybe try Der Spiegel, or's that Das Spiegel? Die? See, the the messes me up. Anyways, it's a big magazine or newspaper in Germany. They might have an English edition and you can compare the articles in them side by side.
