Malayalam (ml) "'Tis" എന്ന് പറഞ്ഞത് ബ്രിട്ടീഷ് ഇംഗ്ലീഷാണെന്ന് പറഞ്ഞാൽ അത്ര ശരിയല്ല, 19-ആം നൂറ്റാണ്ട് വരെ വളരെയധികം ഉപയോഗിക്കാറുള്ള പദമാണ്.
American English (en-US) It isn't really true to say that "'tis" is British English. It's a word that was used a lot until the 19th century.

Malayalam (ml) Diabo എന്ന് പറഞ്ഞത് diablo-പോലത്തെ ഏതാണ്ടാണ്. ;)
American English (en-US) Diabo is something like diablo. ;)

[flag=]pt-BR[/flag] Agora você já está postando quadrilinguamente.
[flag=]en[/flag] Now you're posting quadtrilingually.¹

¹ Couldn't put an equivalent for the "já" above.

Malayalam (ml) പക്ഷെ ഇപ്രാവശ്യം എന്ന വാക്കിന്റെ പരിഭാഷ എഴുതിയല്ലോ!
American English (en-US) But this time, you did write the translation of the word !

EDIT:
Malayalam (ml) ഏതായാലും ആത്മാർത്ഥ പരിഭാഷയാണ് എല്ലവരും എഴുതുന്നതെന്ന് ആര് പറഞ്ഞു? ;)
American English (en-US) Besides, who said what everyone was writing was a literal translation? ;)

Já= already
Now=agora

The closest equivalent is the "aí", mostly used as "then". The "já" in both sentences kind of mean "it becomes".

Malayalam (ml) മാപ്പ്. ഇപ്പം ഒരുമാതിരി മനസ്സിലായിയെന്ന് തോന്നി. :)
American English (en-US) Sorry. I think I pretty much get it now. :)
