    Exclamation Translation if possible please.

    Hi all,
    I received a short text from my wife this morning that I cannot translate at all!
    I often put short bits of some phrases like "I love you" and others in from a list that I made up, and to be honest do not know the differences between the languages used properly, but normally read them from what is in my list.
    Here is the message sent to me.
    "Ma,kinsa daghan gatas dha clingan?"
    Can anyone please help me with this?

    Mick.

    ma- mother
    kinsa - who
    daghan - have many or much
    gatas - milk
    dha ( diha )- there
    silingan - neighbor

    That's the translation mick

    Thank you,
    It does not make any sence to me at all though, I will have to ask her what she meant!
    She has been in hospital for a week and I wonderd if there was a connection with that or if it was some nice love words.

    Hi all,
    Her mothers name was on the grave stone we visited, and I have all the information on her death, on the family tree I have.
    I will let you all know when I find anything out!

    LOL, it's always never wise to lend your celphone to someone else
    What if the text message was for the woman's bf or husband, then you probably would be suspicious mick, thinking you're gf might be cheating, lol

    Translation

    Google has a translation tool. You can go from English to Tagalog or the other way round. Unfortunately it doesn't always make complete sense, but probably you can understand the gist of what was said. It's on the home page. If you have more than a couple of words, use the translate link where you can enter more text.

    It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

    I will have a go with that, but as a mere male for the very little I need it is easier to ask a friendly lady from this wonderfull forem, but I am trying to pich words and prases up, I have a word doc full of english with Tagalog meanings.
    Many thanks,
    Mick.
