Small question for Greek members

 

Being the language lovers that we are... A place to talk about, or write in languages other than Spanish and English.

Small question for Greek members

A friend on another forum has a signature

Δεν θα μου αρέσει όταν είμαι εκνευρισμένος

And I assume he wants to say

You don't want to know me if I get angry

Is the above correct? Thanks.

It's "I won't like it when I'll be upset/angry".
Sorry for being late.

Dear Perikles
The a/m sentence, grammatically ...suffers (mainly as to the sequence of tenses-agreement of tenses-succession of tenses-tense harmony).
Therefore, I can only give you a potential translation, which rather interprets possible meanings than translates.
I.e. I do not like me being angry.
Eeeries's reply is just another suggestion with a certain degree of freedom.

Thank you Katerina. I had forgotten about this, but it was over two years ago.
