meharbani hum: ghusht, suur ka ghusht,murghi,machli,duud ki chiiz,undah.. nehi kateh Explanation: I have listed each item you requested in the order you sent the mail. Please note that kateh is dual for the verb eat. Also, meharbani mei, translates to: excuse me I . ghusht=meat, pork= suur ka ghusht etc Hence, in proper word order, one would say: meharbani hum ghusht nehi kateh i.e excuse me, we do not eat meat. If you would like to say that you do not eat meat and fish you can add 'aur' which translates to 'and'. Hence, Hum ghusht aur machli nehi kateh. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-04 14:50:31 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry abit nervous here. i miss read different dietry preferences. Correct translation for singular masculine: excuse me: i do not eat ... reads: meharbani mei + (items of food you do not eat) nehi katah. Sorry..going on a bit but i\'ll give you a model sentence. meharbani mei machli nehi katah i.e excuse me, i do not eat fish. For feminine use, use kati instead of katah. |
