Confused by new book

Rose113

So just before Christmas I ordered this new book but when it came today it was in a different language does anyone know why?

Faolan

I’m thinking you didn’t order the English version 😂 I just googled it there and the book is written in a few different languages. I’d return that one and buy a new .. or learn a new language 😂

Rose113

@Faolan oops maybe I’ll take up whatever that language is

Faolan

Polish? I think?

If you ask nicely @JJLemon18 might read it to you every night 😂

Rose113

@Faolan ill download duolingo and get started hahaha

Hahah bed time stories with JJ

good luck learning your new language @Rose113 lol

JJLemon18

Did somebody say Polish??

Yes that book is Polish. And no I'm not reading it.

How would that work anyway? Its not like you'd understand more if I read it to you in Polish lol. And I already do plenty of translating for my parents so I'm kinda sick of it now

Why does that make me sound like a responsible old man lmao

Btw the center text reads "this is not a love story". Which sounds to me like its trying to say that this book is, in fact, a love story...

@JJLemon18 its okay I do in fact have a friend that I FaceTime with every night who I never knew, studied polish

Faolan

Refuses to translate it for us

Yep looks like its in a different language, also I love that book too I got it myself but *in english as I dont speak many different languages* and it's on my list of things to read. I mean you could use google translate potentially to translate it or maybe if you were able to, you could return and just explain you accidentally bought it in a translated language instead of English. Otherwise you could use it as an opportunity to study a different language maybe?

@Faolan of course, I knew youd say that -_- ha ha ha...

Me translating a short phrase in the center of the cover does not mean translating the whole damn book! XD

@Rose113 Thats pretty cool! Are they willing to read you the book then? It'd actually be great practice for them too!

If not then I hope you enjoy learning your new language I'd be honoured if you do end up learning Polish haha
