Can anyone give me a translation from the german to understandable english please. I've tried babel and its just babble.

It's a message from a seller on ebay from whom I have purchased a book. I have asked him to forward his home address so that I may send the cash rather than go through the bank, thus incurring big charges.

Something about the book having already been sent?? My german grammar is not what it used to be!

Ich denke der Eingang der Zahlung wird etwas dauern. Ich werde das Heft aber Morgen schon losschicken"

Many thanks in advance - drinks on me at the Das Forum Cafe

Vielen dank und bis gleich

My "usual" translation programme comes up with:

"I think the entrance of the payment will last a little bit. I will already send off the notebook, however, morning"

I'm guessing it means the payment will take a while to go through but he's already sent the book???!

I think "Morgen" in this sense means tomorrow

He comes from Stuttgart - strange dialect!

"I think it will probably take a while for the payment to come in. However, I will already send the book(let) tomorrow."

(He should have written morgen (tomorrow) instead of Morgen (morning), but not all Germans know when to use capitals )

That makes sense................many thanks Mezzo1974

ps. I can't pay him at all if he doesn't send me his address..... I haveasked 3 times now!!

Yes, he means the payment hasn't come through but he'll send the book tomorrow. If you need the address, tell him:

"Koennen Sie mir Ihre Addresse bitte schicken, dann werde ich Ihnen bezahlen koennen".
(Can you send me your address please, so I can send you the payment)

I'd rather say: "... dann werde ich Sie bezahlen koennen" though

I've just had a lecture on the difference between the accusative and dative... I should have known that. Thank you!
