that's cool. i hear that. Cool; je t'entends Explanation: I suggest this, having heard it not two days ago in the mouth of a person acknowledging that his interlocutor's complaint was genuine, while doing nothing about it. In the same way a psychologist/listener may say "I hear you", meaning "I understand your concern". The advantage in THAT context is that the psychologist/listener need not express an explicit opinion. I would translate into standard English by: "That's nice; I see" See here also- one of the suggestions in answer to the question was "je t'entends'. It was not chosen by the asker the the context given. http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_french/general_conversa... Isabelle's suggestion is interesting; however "I hear you" is now - at least in the UK - a frequent way of saying "I see"... (coz it's cool I s'pose!!) |

that's cool. i hear that. C'est cool. Je vois ça. Explanation: I think she means to say she understands what he's talking about and also that she agrees by sharing a drink with him. |
