So beautiful.. I love the composition, the black background, the curved leaf and the bug.. and the shallow depth of field. A really beautiful capture!

Frumoase detalile si culorile! Pot sa vad degetele buburuzei Ieri am gasit un bondar Imi place cum tulpina/mijlocul frunzei formeaza o rama de deasupra buburuzei, ca si cum protejeaza-o :]

*detaliile
*lose the de in front of deasupra
*o protejeaza

(protejeaz-o actually means "protect her!")

Ratafluke In reply to DianaCretu [2007-03-31 20:26:47 +0000 UTC]

I'm a tad confused as to if and when deasupra and dedesubt are used with article or not.

deasupra/dedesubt = on top/bottom
de deasupra de dedesubt = away from the top/bottom?

Now which word would be better: tulpina or mijlocul?
Didn't you explain somewhere else that o comes after the verb?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

DianaCretu In reply to Ratafluke [2007-03-31 21:03:54 +0000 UTC]

Well.
Deasupra/dedesubt means on top (above)/under
De deasupra/de dedesubt means from above/from below.
To explain it better... the 'de' ones are used in sentences where you could replace the "de" with a "which is/was"

I got the book (which is) on top of that pile = Am luat cartea de deasupra maldarului acela. (couldn't think of a better translation for 'pile', I think 'maldar' is pretty ok though)

Also, dedesubt is a bit different. The usual way to say "under" is "sub", so if you want to say "I'm under the bed" you will say "Sunt sub pat".

Dedesubt (unarticulated) is usually used when that particular sentence doesn't explicitly name the object that something would be under, or at least when you don't have that object after the 'dedesubt'. Example... hmm... "The second she saw the bed, the dog hid under it" = "In clipa in care a vazut patul, cainele s-a ascuns dedesubt."
"What are you wearing underneath?" = Ce porti dedesubt? (it also means this)
"See that pile of files? Yes. Mine is the one way down there." = "Vezi maldarul ala de dosare? Da. Al meu este dedesubt de tot"

Dedesubtul (articulated) is also used quite often. You find it in the same sentences I gave examples for just before, but if you add a noun after them.
"The second she saw the bed, the dog hid under the bed" = "In clipa in care a vazut patul, cainele s-a ascuns dedesubtul patului."
"What are you wearing underneath your clothes?" - "Ce porti dedesubtul hainelor?"
"See that pile of files? Yes. Mine is the one way under the other ones." = "Vezi maldarul ala de dosare? Da. Al meu este dedesubtul celorlalte"

As for tulpina/mijlocul... better use mijlocul. Tulpina means strictly the stem of a plant, meaning from where it goes out of the ground to where the flower starts.

I don't think the 'o at the end' thing was refering to a verb. Hmm.

Multumesc pentru explicatia ta lunga! Suna foarte dificil :/ Am salvat-o pentrue referirea viitoare (for future reference).

Am salvat-o // L'am salvat.

There it is. Can't find it in my notes, but I'm pretty sure you explained it this way. But then maybe the difference is that the female pronoun comes after the participle here... or maybe that it's a conditional(?) clause? How would you say:

As if to protect him.
The thingie protects her.

DianaCretu In reply to Ratafluke [2007-04-10 17:43:33 +0000 UTC]

*pentru referire viitoare
*am salvat-o

Yes, it's quite possible that it's how you thought it, with the participle.

As if to protect him = Ca si pentru a-l proteja (not 100% sure, I may need a bigger context)
The thingie protects her = Chestia o protejeaza.

Ratafluke In reply to DianaCretu [2007-04-10 18:33:39 +0000 UTC]

The context I meant was the above comment, only with a male noun (eg bondar) instead of a female one like buburuza.

Mijlocul formeaza o rama deasubtul buburuzei, ca si pentru o proteaza.
Mijlocul formeaza o rama dasubtul bondarului, ca si pentru a-l proteja.

DianaCretu In reply to Ratafluke [2007-04-14 15:29:33 +0000 UTC]

*dedesubtul
(in both cases)
*ca si pentru a o proteja
The other is fine

Ratafluke In reply to DianaCretu [2007-04-15 07:18:27 +0000 UTC]

Deasubtul? What a strange mix of dedesubtul and deasupra I concocted there
I meant to figure out the positioning of the pronoun in those sentences, and I got it right
Now that other mistake must be part of the conjuntive (subjunctive?) thingie I'm trying to figure out currently.

Mijlocul formeaza o rama deasupra buburuzei, ca si pentru a o proteja.
Mijlocul formeaza o rama deasupra bondarului, ca si pentru a-l proteja.

Above I meant to say with that mix, not below
L-am salvat, but a-l proteja?

DianaCretu In reply to Ratafluke [2007-05-04 18:01:25 +0000 UTC]

Those are correct.

Yeah, "l-am salvat" and "a-l proteja". They are different because "l-am salvat" means "I saved him" (past tense) while "a-l proteja" means "(to) protect him". Different tenses.
