Korelyi Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 (edited) Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I've recently learned how to say something in Armenian with near perfect fluidity and pronunciation. The problem is, I don't know some of the words, or how to spell them. The sentence, in transliterated Armenian, is: "Bolore dov ker kasumen vor Hayeren chem khosum yev haskanum, jistu yes Hye chem, byts iskakan Hye yev 'podcast chain' anum'. It's actually from an Eastern Armenian podcast, eh heh... But I figured that the message wasn't exclusive to the podcast. Disregarding 'Podcast chain', what do the other words mean? The words I need to know are Bolore dov ker kasumen jistu byts iskakan vor anum Forgive me if they're spelled wrong, I wrote it down as I heard it, so it's kind of in phonetic spelling. I basically just wanna know what the sentence means, and how each word breaks down to form the meaning. Again, sorry if this is the wrong place. (I'm probably embarrassing myself, but I need to know.) Edited August 28, 2007 by Korelyi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rostom Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 (edited) Bolored --> All of you ovker --> who asumen --> say jistu --> correct byts --> but/however iskakan --> true vor --> that anum --> do Armenian: Բոլորդ ռվքեր ասռւմ են որ Հայերեն չեմ խոսում և հասկանում, ձիշտ է, ես Հայ չեմ, բայց իսկական Հայ 'Podcast chain' անռւմ: English Translation: All of you who say that I do not speak or understand Armenian, you are correct, I am not Armenian, but a true Armenian does 'Podcast chain'. As you can see the last portion of this sentence kind of falls apart. It may be that they said: 'Podcast' chen anum. That is, you may have taken the word chen/չեն, meaning 'not' (followed by a transitive verb) in Armenian, and incorrectly placed it in the quotes as part of 'Podcast'. If that is the case then it makes a little more sense, and then the latter portion of the saying would translate to something like the following: but a true Armenian does not Podcast. Although this still doesn't fit smoothly for me Edited August 28, 2007 by rostom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the rest of it (again, it's what I heard. Not necessarily correct): Yes ah hamper pasum e byts vorts mi banch e stats vets, yet e duk karogh ek 'Podcast' pat-ras-del, yes shat shat kuzanai lisel u sovarel dzez nez. Yes Hayeren lezun shat sirum em mia komevor vorsh mey-uresh Hye en e 'Podcast' mache-lichel, yes urakh e yapahovel ien inch vor pakasesh. Vordurakan arachal kutsunel lunag, yes tser imalin shats pasum em. And yes, I believe it was 'Podcast' chen', not 'Podcast chain'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armenian (my guess): Ես ահա համբեր սպասում եմ բայց որդս մի բան չէ ստած, եթէ դուք կարող էք «Podcast» պատրաստել, ես շատ շատ կ'ուզանայի լսել ու սովորել ձեզմէ: Ես հայերէն լեզուն շատ սիրում եմ... ???... ես ուրախ եմ... Որ դրական... ես ձեր իմալին շատ սպասում եմ: English Translation (my guess): I am patiently waiting but my son/daughter has not lied about one thing, if you (plural) are able to prepare a "Podcast", I would really really like to hear and learn from you (plural). I really like the Armenian language... ??? ... I am happy... That positive... I am really waiting for your (plural) understanding/knowing.
