writers group (all displaced to Puerto Rico--includes
a Dutch woman, an Australian, a Sardinian and two <i><span style="font-family: Arial;">gringos)</span></i> was wondering if it is possibleto say, "The
dogs are barking their heads off" in Dutch?</span></p>
<p style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">And
inother Lowlands languages?</span></p>
<p style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">I
know thisdoesn't respond to any thread and if you don't wish to publish this, I
willunderstand.</span></p>
