Vague

[JosephThomas]

Hello,

I have a question.

It is,

"to how few?" - it's vague.

specifically meaning,

"but to how few?"

It's in reference to,

"Is not darkness night? Indeed, but while over how few?"

please help. As, as an english speaking person, I use vague questions 80% more often then not.
Implied topics are common conversation.
they must be in other languages too.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, or ask. Implied conversation is common in every language, but the people involved in the conversation know what the topic is. I haven't a clue why you've used the phrases you did. They don't make sense to me.

This isn't the proper forum for this.

Okay, i'll have a conversation with myself. And you see if you can translate.
I hope you can help.

"Darkness is not night."

"Isn't darkness what night is?"

"it was. however now it's when it's not dark over people at all."

"over how small of an amount of people? Because it is day in China and night in America."

"any amount of people. It's night in China until the sun comes up in America now."

"So it's night so long as a continent of people are under the starry night?"

"yes exactly. that few people under the stars makes it night. Hawaii really."

see?
That was the intended message of my vague question.

I need to see your strive first, because we can't resolve you the work, before you try it.

hmmm.. I'll just restart my intro and work from there.
ahah.

thanks.

My strive was in the first post.

I just want to say,
"To how few?"
simply put.


God Bless

thanks again

In that case more context is needed.

Just like that it could mean "a cuánto menos"

Para cuántos.
(For how many.)

Por cuántos, also.

I guess context would determine. Right?
