Poor grammar is making translation impossible

Question

Can anyone translate the following? I believe the grammar to be incorrect, I'm having a hard time doing it myself, even with the google translator and dictionary tools. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks!

"dimedomdi kieres ketespere el lunes perosabes yonotomo nosedonde mibas ayebar diskulpamepor sertan atrebido"

Answer 1

I'll just put in correct Spanish for you. You can take it from there.

"Dime dónde quieres que te espere el lunes. Pero, sabes, yo no tomo. No sé a dónde me ibas a llevar. Discúlpame por ser tan atrevido."

I really can't fully make up my mind whether to consider that sort of writing "creative" or just plain awful...

It's horrific!! - --Mariana--, Jul 31, 2010

It is so bad it had to be done intentionally. - ian-hill, Jul 31, 2010

Well done, Gekk! - 005faa61, Jul 31, 2010

When I was in school, one of our games was to try and misspell words as badly as we could while the text was still "readable". That's why I thought this person could be trying to be creative. - Gekkosan, Jul 31, 2010

Answer 2

I agree with Feliz that the name of the country where this Spanish came from is "Textlandia." It's texting/instant messaging language stretched to the max. Usually people at least have the decency to use correct spacing. Gekkosan's translation (of Textlandian Spanish) is great. :D

I agree, Gekko has done agreat job in translating a messed up piece of text :) - FELIZ77, Jul 31, 2010

Answer 3

This isn't just a case of bad grammar, rather, it is just a bunch of words stuck together, with no punctuation or spacing.

Or proper spelling. - MacFadden, Jul 31, 2010

Answer 4

Yes, I agree...... it is an appalling example of writing that only vaguely represents Spanish !

The lack of correct spelling, grammer and punctaution would render it unintelligible to many beginners in Spanish.

It is probably either an example of sloppy/lazy writing or, as Ian suggests, written intentionally in this style but to what purpose?

Could it be a Spanish version of "textspeak"? - lagartijaverde, Jul 31, 2010

Quite possibly Bird in text it seems 'anything goes' and everything good goes out the window lol - FELIZ77, Jul 31, 2010

I agree, it's terrible. - --Mariana--, Jul 31, 2010

or should I say textland? lol - FELIZ77, Jul 31, 2010

Answer 5

The only thing I understand is el lunes but even I see those are just words put together without any sense.
