Martin Dufresne Sheila,
Is this a reinforcement by the speaker or the reaction of someone else responding to him or her? Dec. 4, 04:33 GMT
Martin Dufresne Of course, it depends on context. In an underworld novel about drug trafficking, the translation could read:
- "My old man mislaid 20 K's!"
- "Bummer."

Jane Lamb-Ruiz Agree [Dec. 4, 17:10 GMT]
That's impressive is more colloquial..
Jane Lamb-Ruiz [Dec. 4, 18:57 GMT]
Isn't it amazing how no one has agreed with anyone here, except ME with YOU?? Unbelievable...
Martin Dufresne [Dec. 4, 19:25 GMT]
Yes, I had also thought of "unbelievable", as did Barbara ;^)
I suggest that we can't "agree" unless asker clarifies the question, Jane.
