Could you repeat that in english please


I tried every translation site that I could find and apparently it is
so poorly written that none of them could really make sense of it.

I didn't see the original post, but the closest I can get, with some
marginal long-ago French lessons, and guessing at some of the spelling, is
something like "can you tell me when there is " (Est que vous pouvez me
dir quand il y a ), and then it looks like "a virus in the road" -- but I
don't now what that is supposed to mean. Based on the spelling ("kan"
instead of "quand", "esque" instead of "Est que") and what looks like an
incorrect conjugation of pourriez, I would guess that the original poster
might not be of French origin. But again, it's been more than a few years
since my French classes, so I could be wrong.

I have no idea how popular text messages sent between cell phones are in
the US; they are very popular in Europe and their users have developed
their very own spelling style. As such it looks like the author of the
original message mistook his keyboard for a phone keypad. :-)

He is basically requesting to be informed next time a virus is on the
road... which road? No idea. Maybe he wants to subscribe to a newsletter
but I am afraid he has come to the wrong place.

It's french.........who cares, worthless language (and country) anyway

Look, usually I would respond to his in a not-so-elegant manner but
exceptionnally, to start mending those transatlantic ties we have been
hearing a lot about lately, I will point you to a site where you can
merrily discharge your vomit: http://www.****france.com

Good riddance.

esque vous pourriez me dire kan il y a un virus en cours de route?

Vu l'ambiance ici, essayez de reformuler votre question d'une manière un
peu plus... compréhensible sur fr.comp.securite.virus.
 
No need to mend fences.......they've been on the wrong side of things
for the last 60 years. I could care less what France things, as
stated earlier, worthless country..........

Good riddance to you also......

Hey, thanks (or, merci beaucoup)! Nice to know I remembered at least a
little bit of my classes. :) After I replied, I remembered that sometimes
new viruses are referred to as being "in the wild" -- maybe that's what he
meant, he wants to know when a new one emerges.

Ironically, France receives a lot of almost obsessive attention from
people who allegedly find it worthless and irrelevant. ;-)
