TCH-Thomas Posted August 18, 2004 Posted August 18, 2004 Donkey vs Porsche And I will not need a driving license Quote
borfast Posted August 18, 2004 Posted August 18, 2004 LOL I'm convinced, I'm getting a donkey Strange I didn't hear about that, though. It was here in Portugal. By the way, when someone says "local newspaper", do they mean local as in "a newspaper from that small town" or do they mean local as in "a newspaper from the country we're talking about"? I always thought it means "from that small town" but "Jornal de Notícias" is one of the most important (and biggest) newspapers in Portugal... Quote

I dont know, I think it depends where or with who you say it too. If I in here would refer to a "local" newspaper, I would refer to one of Swedens biggest and not Stockholms biggest, since its a bigger chance that Swedens biggest has a english translated net-edition. But if we were living in the U.S, I think its different with all the 51 states (or how many they are). Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted August 18, 2004 Posted August 18, 2004 But if we were living in the U.S, I think its different with all the 51 states (or how many they are). Thomas, we still only have 50 states. And a local newspaper here would be the city's paper and not a larger paper like the New York Times or Washington Post. Quote
borfast Posted August 18, 2004 Posted August 18, 2004 Thanks, Bruce. That's what I thought. But perhaps that reporter meant "a Portuguese newspapaer", since it's an international news. Well, who cares. I just want to buy a donkey, anyway Quote
