The answer is incorrect. 'Teillon' is a combination of two words 'Teillä' (you, plural) and 'on' (have). It's commonly used in speech, but never in formal writing. The InterTran translation service is a horrible one, at least when it comes to translating finnish. I have no clue how 'teillon' translates to 'destroy' - it's 'tuhota' in finnish. |

Tenori-- Thanks for this clarification. I thought theta's answer was strange. I had spent hours before trying to use online translators, never to any success. I also had some notion that "teillon" was some kind of pronoun by the way it is used in the newsgroups. Finnish is a hard language to translate! :) Thanks again, Teillon |
