Anybody translate for me?


Bablefish comes up with :-

# Konnt their me horen?
# Konnt their me see?
# Konnt their me fuhlen?
# I do not understand you

Anybody translate for me?


Babelfish has problems at the best of times, but has been totally
defeated by the omision of 5 umlauts. My German grammar is a bit rusty
now, but AFAIK "ihr" and "euch" are the plural familiar forms of "sie"
(you).

Könnt ihr mich hören? = Can you hear me?
Könnt ihr mich sehen? = Can you see me?
Könnt ihr mich fühlen? = Can you feel me?
Ich versteh euch nicht = I do not understand you

I don't understand him either. What's the point of that sig?
