It certainly is not polite, but not a death threat. Don't want to take sides but this is a seldom used curse phrase in Romanian. At least in my neck of the woods as I heard few people use it before (once or twice). Swearing in Romanian is
hard to translate fully in other languages, as is the case of many other languages...
So...
- He opened a thread where he offered translations (it was badly written and was very vague. Most might have understood he needed translation)
- You offered him your translation service which he took as thread hijacking (and legend has it that you are still translating his word to this day)
As for some reason he chooses to speak english English on a romanian Romanian board i'll I'll just say that I make the translation understandable, i I don't either have nor want all that stupid gramatical idiocracy idiocy (n.b. for this context, the correct term is idiocy, but the caveman doesn't know what idiocracy means) as there's someone else to bother with that. Ofcourse Of course, any translation would be written without grammatical mistakes and a corrector will be used on top."
- he got upset and started cursing very bad
- you then called him out for his broken Romanian
- some more swearing, some more translations, some more cursing...
- you then called him out for his broken English
- some more swearing, some more translations, some more cursing...
Conclusion:
1. IMHO not a death threat...
2. WTF are you even arguing about ? There is no scam, just a guy with "less than perfect" writing skills advertising for translation services. Not the first, not the last.
3. Write
in Romanian in the
Romanian local board!!! If you need you can translate it later. Seems you are both translating stuff anyways so shouldn't be a problem.
