Short Translation needed ......please.

[Romano1970]

Hello. Could I get assistance on this email I recieved?


prego tradurre in Italiano e indicare data di nascita di quanto richiesto Grazie Dirig G.Chiello

They are asking you to make your request in Italian and to be sure to include the date of birth.

PS: If not certain of the exact date of birth, you can try something like "circa 1885-1887"

I tried to use a translator on line but I guess it comes out sort of wrong. if I write something out could someone help me translate it?

Egregio signor dirigente G. Chiello vi sarei molto grato se voleste aiutarmi nella ricerca dei miei parenti che si chiamavano : Romano, Nigrelli, Ristagno che abitavano in Piazza Maida Triolo di Piazza Armerina e Musumelli in Sicilia

If you are requesting typical birth/marriage/etc documents, there are several online tools which can help in preparing a suitable letter. Just a few:

www.circolocalabrese.org/resources/letters/index.asp (seems to be offline at the moment)

http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/ ... talian.ASP

Also, two of my own examples in this thread.

Used the family search link and created a letter to Piazza. Thanks Johny!!!

The gentleman replied quickly however I do not think it was answering the question. Could I get a translate on it?

complimenti per il suo Italiano vedro' di farle pervenire quanto richiesto Il Dirigente G.Chiello

[johnnyonthespot]

Google's translator puts it at, "congratulations for his Italian I will see what is required to send their Chiello G. The Manager"

Which I take to mean, Compliments on your Italian; I will search for the record. Signed, G. Chiello, department manager.

Perhaps Livio will offer a better translation.

Compliments on your Italian. I will send you what you required. The Manager G.Chiello.

[Romano1970]

John/Livio thank you. I have to laugh. I wish I was that good at Italian right now.

Rosetta stone is working wonderfully though. Johny I used one of the links you sent to me

Grazie Grazie
