Translation Exercise For Beginners:
I noticed that there are a lot of intermediate and beyond translation exercises. Which is great for those who have advanced that far in language, so I thought I would do an exercise for beginners. It's simple. Translate the following sentence as best you can without looking at the other translations posted. I will post an English translation soon!

Thank you!! I always feel bad not participating in the other translation games but they are way beyond my ability. I was able to figure this one out without peaking and without right clicking on any word but it did make me think a little. If you have the time to do more of these I would greatly appreciate it.
