In the states we say "Freedom" which means "fuck off I'm American and I do whatever the fuck I want" isn't that amazing?

In Pittsburgh, we do something similar. Only it’s Yinz in stead of Y’all. For example, Yinz motherfuckers need Talos.

As a Texan - education is irrelevant. You pick up y'all, y'all're, and y'all'da as part of the local culture. That includes professors.

French guy here: "tu me manques" exactly means "i miss you". "You are missing from me" would be a terrible litteral translation.

Hmmm. Correction. "Tu me manque" would be "you miss me" because french is a terrible language. I miss you = "je te manque".

My rench is rusty, is it possible the literal translation would be "I'm missing from you"? I thought "I miss you" would be "Je te manques".

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yup. That. To me more precise the real translation would be “you are missing to me”

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

Doesn't the subject pronoun come before the object pronoun? Why is 'tu' not the subject here?

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Tu is the subject. Tu me manques = tu manques à moi (it's the idea, but it's not correct French). In this case, missing is "directed" ./.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

differently between French and English. However, I missed the target = j'ai manqué la cible, here "miss" has the same meaning in both lang.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

"Tu" is the subject, "me" is who the verb is directed at.

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

1/ Yeah, so from an English perspective, it would translate as "You *are missed by* me" because we don't have a single verb that conveys

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

2/ that meaning. I get that French speakers don't get that out of it, but in totally literal terms it's a closer translation than "I miss

3/ you", because "I" is not the subject and "you" is not the object.

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

That would translate to “I am missing to you”, like a piece would miss to an engine

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

But...'je t'aime' means "I love you", and not "I am love to you", which is odd because they appear to be the same grammatical construction.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

You are mixing transitive and intransitive verbs here my dear!

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Saying "je te manque" would imply you know the feelings of the person for you. Saying "tu me manque" could be translated as 1/2

"I'm not complete without you" whereas saying "je te manque" would be "you're not complete without me". Kind of. A bit presomptuous

"je" is "I", not "me". But "the" is for "you" only as the "target", not the "active" person. For the "active you", it's "Tu". 1/2
