: Congratulations on the birth of your baby/on your new arrival sau 'Long live the baby!' daca e vorba de bebelusul regelui :o) Glumesc. 'Long live' ar fi traducerea cuvant cu cuvant, dar nu merge pentru oamenii de rand :o).

La primul meu job in Canda am avut o profesoara care, in fiecare zi de luni, venea in biroul meu pentru Coloquial English 101. Motivul? CEO-ul firmei pentru care lucram, si de altfel cel care a pus toata chestia asta la cale, mi-a spus " If you don't mind ... your English is really good but you sound like you're ready to meet The Queen rather than relate to the common folk"
Deci "stiff" nu e o.k. decat, poate, pentru ESL.
Locuitorii planetei Vulcan preferă "Live long and prosper".
