    Default YouTube comments.

    I get a few odd comments on some of my Youtube videos, usually from Italians, but the latest one takes the biscuit. I've tried to translate it with google but what I get back is this :

    If Delta is the one with a saw

    the original text is

    Se quello con la Delta ? una sega

    Anyone care to hazard a guess as to what it actually means?

    Cheers

    Babel says: "If that one with the Delta is one it saws"

    Doesn't really help...

    Not got a clue...apart from something like "Delta's are sharp"!

    On an Alfa forum, there must be at least one person who can read Italian!!

    Ah yes, forgot about that rule.

    So now you just need the person to own up...

    It is true that I have some pain in my hands when I try to speak italian but maybe I could manage a better translation by the context.

    Yeah, I know I could try harder in English too...

    Steve, could you show us the entire text or it's about a video?

    The comment was from this video on Youtube. I hadn't noticed but there is infact an awful lot of discussion in Italian

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Km28oXYgKCg"]YouTube - Alfa 155 Q4 Vs Lancia Delta Integrale[/ame]

    There also seems to be alot of discussion about a Q4 being able to catch and pass a grale.

    Yeah...
    At least at the final it's about a contradictory discussion between those guys.

    Salvito82 says ("la delta abbia un valore superiore") = Delta has a superior value ...

    EmYliano155 says
    ...("con la delta devo dare io 1000€ per farmela rottamare!!!)= With a Delta it's me I'd have to give 1000 EURO to have it quashed.
    ...("infatti ? ora, perch? gi? hanno rottamato tutte le delta e nn hanno nulla da fare...") = in fact they have had quashed all the Deltas and it's nothing to do about it...

    Salvito82 says ("Infatti oggi la 155 ? ottima per rottamarla vale 1.000,00.") = In fact in these days the 155 is suited to be quashed for 1000 EURO...")

    Morkario says as a response ...( "Se quello con la Delta ? una sega... ") = Yeah, If the Delta guy would be a saw himself /or a sawyer ?! (can't get the most accurate picture of what he has meant with that)

    I'll read the whole thing when get some time and will get back I hope with some really more interesting remarks from there about 155 Q4 and Delta Integrale...

    It was more the lack of discussion "content"/ the absence of real information that made this hard to understand...

    Cheers.

    I asked a good Italian friend of mine, I'll just post up exactly what he wrote:

    Concerning the youtube comments I bet you didn't found it in the translator, i would translate it to: Driver is a jerk, sega means mainly masturbating but it's used in many ways in italy.
    The other comment says that he would even need to pay to bring the integrale to the junkyard as no one wants it.


    So one up to the Q4 boys!
