Forma is not used for that. Shape will be "alak" in this sense. I dont know whether you like science fiction. I like good science fiction very much. For example I watched all the 700+ series of Star Trek. In Hungary they are translated into Hungarian. It is a very bad habit in Hungary, almost everything is dubbed there. In Bulgaria is better: 90 % of foreign movies are with original sound only with subtitles, and 10 % is dubbed, but only "half-dubbed" (you can hear the original voice and over it there is a Bulgarian voice). I prefer DVDs, with original sound and subtitles! In case of American/British movies, I use the English subtitles for hearing impaired, it is almost always included in DVDs! So, in Star Trek Deep Space 9 there is a race called "changellings", race that can change its shape. In the Hungarian version it was translated as "alakváltók".

No. After "jó" and "rossz" there is no need for imperative, because this is not a command or a wish or something like that. This is a simple statement. "Jó, hogy rendben vagytok." 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||||||||

Yes, this is very diffent in English and in Hungarian. Interesting thing: in Bulgarian it is expressed almost the same as in Hungarian. "He hears someone near him" - "Той чува някого близо до себе си." (Latin transliteration: "Toy chuva nyakogo blizo do sebe si.") Probably you understanд that from Czech. If you say "blizo do nego" (= near to him), then the question will be "near to whom? who else is there?". 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||||||||

I watched quite a lot of 'Star Trek Deep Space 9' and remember the changelings. I also watched a little of the second generation of Star Trek, I can't remember what it was called though - the next generation or something like that. I've never been a massive fan though. The Bulgarian use of original sound is great. In Czech Republic it's the same as in Hungary. They say that they won't change it because it would take away a lot of dubbing work from Czech actors! I don't mind personally because it means I can watch lots of films in Czech and avoid hearing English in the evenings. Are Bulgarians better than Hungarians at English as a result of this no dubbing policy? 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||||||||

I've realised now that actually in Czech it's the same as Bulgarian! Both are possible with the same meaning but it depends on the context. "Slyší někoho blízko sebe" is like Hungarian. "Slyší někoho blízko něho" could have either meaning and it would depend on context for the understanding of the meaning. Is that the same as Bulgarian? 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||||||||

Yes, it is The Next Generation. The Next Generation is earlier than DS9.
Yes, much better. And this is not only because people are more open. The lack of dubbing helps very much. 90 % of the movies in TV and cinemas are American or British or from other English speaking country. This way even people who doesnt want to learn English, gets used to the sound of English speech. I am very much antidubbing. Even a good dubbing in reality falsifies the original. I think there should be dubbing only for little childrens films, as they cant read yet. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||||||||
