Well, you are very very busy, you have not the time to look for a dictionnary, yes, you look for the meaning of an english word but you don't find, you ask all your friends, they dunnow, weeeeeeeeelllllllllll, that's the end of the world !!!

Fortunately www.zoolook.nl is here !! Oh yes, the final solution :D

So post here the words you want others to translate into your language or to make a definition !!!!


For my case :
cheer
bother

cheer is what people do in a stadium after the team they support scores a goal :D

and bother, "don't bother" is a bit like "don't worry"... ;)

It depends of the phrase in which it's used ;)
For a synth, it is a sound recorded on the machine :D

A patch is literally a solution. And as Nico says, it's also a term for synths, originally dating back to the old modular synths, which needed patch cables to work. Therefor every programmed sound on a synth is today still called a patch ;)

Well, I have a problem with this word :

eyewhitnesses

It is something about eyes but so :mrgreen:

Don't you mean "eyewitnesses" (I saw it also written with the hyphen: "eye-witnesses") :?:

If yes - that's in fact the same that "witnesses" - people who saw the crime f.e. a murder and can tell about it in the court (obviously if not killed or something ;)) - in simple Ronja's words :)

I think there's also a word "eyewhites" (I saw it in lyrics of some song), I guess referring to the white parts of the eye...but you probably meant what I wrote before - eyewitnesses.
