If you are really interested, go to Wordlingo.com http://www.worldlingo.com/products_services/worldlingo_translator.html they did a fine job
Wordlingo definitely worked better than foreignword, but I still can't get a proper English xlation for the word 'hou'. HELP? Also, where might I find help with correct pronunciation?

Come to think of it, that IS a strange word I have no clue of the origin, but it translates into 'like'. If you say: 'ik hou van jou', it means 'I love you'

Hou can also be used for food, to inquire if someone likes to eat a particular food in general or certain activities. Basically you are asking someone about their rooted emotions, so to speak, not transient things.

Now you went and did it. Only a few hours after your post, Tsunami looked at me and said: "Gee honey, wouldn't you like to go to Amsterdam again soon?" , , !

Experience teaches me that if Tsumani wants to go, she'll go with or without me. I can also see that I don't dare let her go alone...not with your influence around.

So we will be staying at your place for a few weeks; Okay?

Eventually...

Of course I was just kidding. Tsunami gets pretty wild at times. I don't mind paying for hotel room furniture and such, but personal items are sometimes difficult to replace.
