Short story - Deja vu

I just finished my latest short story, but unfortunately it is in Slovak as I don't know English well enough to write novels and shit in it. So I can't share it with the world :( I hate being born and raised in this stupid country.

Edit: thanks to help from Ratburntro and Joshua I was able to translate it, you can read it here if you are interested

Well, you could post it anyway, I love short stories.

I do short stories. :)

Please? I can just use my small knowledge of Slovak plus a translator to sort of read it...

Google translate would just ruin it, it doesn't work very well with Slovak

Only a matter of time until we get a player who's job is to translate stuff who should be able to translate the story, but until then let's keep making stories and other stuff.

I tried translation with Slovak to English... you're right about it messing things up.

Learn more English! :lol:

I'm sure if you posted it in English as best you could, we could team up to make it grammatically correct!

You want to write novels so that you can use your own novels as toilets?

I have a plan. Everyone else can just learn Slovak, then come together with their new skills to act out a comprehensible movie of Lopdo's novel accompanied by a professional orchestra to put accent on every event. And I want this to me by Tuesday. :lol:
