Oleg, Tatiana and Elena, none of your translations are idiomatic.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 7 лет назад

It’s just not the way a native would say it.

Elena Bogomolovaadded a comment 7 лет назад

It's just funny that three persons couldn't translate such a simple phrase. That's how we were taught)

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 7 лет назад

It’s funny because Oleg’s translation, for example, is grammatically correct, but nobody would ever say it like that. I think when you’re learning a language it’s important to have authentic examples of what a native would actually say. That’s why I’m such a fan of snippets because you see words and expressions in action in their “natural habitat.”
