Hello and welcome! :D

 

I could try helping you! My first language isn't English either, but I could still give it a try! :)

 

Which interview do you need to have translated?? If you can't post the youtube link or whatever, just send me a PM!

Alright, here's the first part, the other part I'll post tomorrow or so when I've got more time! ^^

 

I hope it helps!

 

C: Chris

I: Interviewer

J: Jimmy Carr

A: Antonio Banderas

S: Salma Hayek

 

I: Sit yourself down sir!

C: That was funny, that- I was watching!

I: It's clever that!

J: There are different ones around the country, I could do the confused 'Welsh': 'Whose coat is that jacket?' 'Whose shoes are those trainers?'

C: We had a guy on tour who said that. For real. He said: 'whose coke is that pepsi?'

I: And huge congratulations to you, uhhh, "Mylo XOLTO"!

C: Nah, doesn't matter

I: *tries to pronounce it correctly but fails* Xolmilotlkf-

C: XYLOTO

I: Xolosite?

C: ... it doesn't matter

J: I was wondering about this title because I thought is it- are you a big Scrabble player? Did you just get yourself-

C: Yeah that's 96 points.

J: It's an incredible title!

C: You gotta have an interesting name, my real name is not that interesting so, it's not like, Antonio Banderas, or Jimmy Carr..

I: But the great thing is, it's been a huge success!

C: Well, *stutters* - yeah..

I: I guess every band dreams of being successful-

C: Uh-huh

I: - but when you've got success, there's all that terrible pressure of "Oh no I've gotta stay successful!"

C: First you dream of having a girlfriend, then you dream of getting successful.

I: And both have come true!

C: Those are the two dreams.

I: So how much pressure do you feel before a new album?

C: About 15 stone.

I: Really?

C: It feels like, well like anything, like a movie or a tv show or a fruit Smoothie releasing or I don't know!

I: It's more than a movie, because with a movie you hopefully have another one in the pipeline or something but this is-

C: -this is the end!

I: it's three years, isn't it?

C: Well yeah. Not long! Not three years long!

I: No! That is value!

C: You know, I was thinking about names and stuff, because I knew you would ask me about Mylo Xyloto, what it means, and I realised that "Banderas" means flags, right?

A: that's correct.

C: So his name is really "Tony Flags"

A: Yeah!

C: Which isn't so glamourous!

I: Don't they put that on your trailer sometimes?

A. And now that I'm leaving tonight to Italy, I will say 'that's my name' to the hotel.

C: For real?

A: Yah

I: Don't say that to them!! Code Name: 'Zorro', checked in under 'Tony Flag', you'll find him.

 

I: An honest album, you've got a duet with Rihanna?!

C: Yes.

I: Very exciting!

C: It is exciting.

I: That you got Rihanna to-

C: I know.

I: Do people speak to people? Or is it Chris calling Rihanna?

C: Ah, no, I went to visit her, sat down with the piano and, her sitting where you are, looking very similar.

I: Yeah I can imagine.

C: And ah-

I: She looks rough, she looks rough!

C: I said, um, "I have this song, and.." I was very English about it, and it took about 20 minutes to ask the question. And then I just played it and she was like "Okay!" About 2 million dollars. (<- In case you didn't understand that, he meant he paid Rihanna 2 million dollars for the song, but only said that as a joke!)

I: *stares at him*

C: Nah! She said "I'll do it" and so, we've never done a duet before so it was a bit of a risk, but it didn't sound that bad.

I: No, it sounds great! If you're looking for other collaborators, Salma there, she loves singing!

S: NO!

My first language is German :lol: Practice is everything! When I registered in this forum, my English was really bad. But it helps immensly if you watch series or movies in english^^ And read internet blogs! You just have to confront yourself with the language on a daily basis. The key is to have fun while doing so! You'll learn funny sayings and the correct sentence structures and all that. It takes time, but you'll gradually improve yourself! :3

 

Yeah I can help you! Although I don't have that much free time, I usually have some free time in the evening, so I could try transcripting the interviews sporadically every now and then =D

I second this! When I started posting on here, I'd google every word, sentence I would post to check if it made sense, but after a few months I could stop doing that. It's amazing how fast it improves if you use it like every day :awesome:

Wow thats awesome Batman! I agree with all of the posts above. Practicing helps a lot, and make sure to do on a daily basis. I don't live in English country but thanks to the Internet that gives me lots of opportunities to learn the language much better. When I first signed up on this forum, my English was terrrrrible. Even sometimes until now I dont know if what I have been saying do make sense haha. But afterwhile as time goes on, I learned from everyone here how they form sentences and make good soundings to read. Good luck :)

The most hilarious thing is when you're talking to another non-English speaker and you're both too lazy to writer proper English and just, write the most horrible and grammatically reduced English as possible... and still perfectly understand each other! :laugh3:

 

thank you guys so much :D Coldplay fans are so friendly and I think I will do practise my english on this page everyday :)) And send my special love to Batman. "you don't know how lovely you are :))

 

We try our best to be kind to each other... at least most of us do :lol:

 

Aaaaawww thank you! :wacky:
