Viðmerking um umsetingina	I'd like to put a multilingual sign to my postbox to get rid of the pizza advertisements that gets delivered to my mailbox regardless of my current sign in Finnish. British and American English are both acceptable. <Admin's remark> This request is no longer acceptable according to our new submission rules.

Heiti	No advertising flyers or pizza advertisements, thank you!

	pias Tal av boðum: 8113	Hi, free distribution= (leaflets, flyers, free paper) the 'junk' mail you recieve in your mailbox or when you recieve advertise for a new product/service.

	kafetzou Tal av boðum: 7963	They're called advertising flyers.

	kafetzou Tal av boðum: 7963	I've edited the English, but it sounds awkward, because pizza advertisements would be included in advertising flyers, wouldn't they? Also, why "cheers"? I changed that to "thank you".

	pias Tal av boðum: 8113	Hi Kafetzou, yes I think you are right about that pizza advertisements would be included in advertising flyers, but..since this person that asked for this translation is writing in the notes that he wants to to get rid of the PIZZA advertisements that gets delivered to his mailbox...I don't know how to get that clear??? About 'cheers',I thought that cheers is just another way (informal; british english)to say thank you... am I complete wrong about this? Is it possible to write like this: No advertising flyers (Included pizza), thank you! What do you think Kafetzou?

	kafetzou Tal av boðum: 7963	After re-reading it, I think it's OK. "Cheers" does mean "thank you", but it's used when you want to be very informal, friendly, even affectionate. It's inappropriate when you're telling someone to go away (effectively).

	pias Tal av boðum: 8113	Ok...Verry good to know the difference between cheers and thank you CHEERS for the 'lesson'. (Maybe you not get notifications about this translation any more..since it's done, but I will ask you anyway) What about the word 'thanks', Is that a more everyday expression for thank you?..less formal, but still a more formal word than cheers? Sorry Kafetzou...many questions here for you, but it would be nice to know

	Ijon Tal av boðum: 8	Thanks for the English translation. You understood correctly - pizza advertisements would be included in advertising flyers but the local pizzerias seem to ignore my sign completely. The multilingual sign will be of serious matter (saving the nature) with a touch of humour. I think that somethong like "free distribution" might be more correct here than "advertisement flyers" since in addition to pure advertisements I also want to ban the weekly free newspapers.

	pias Tal av boðum: 8113	ljon, maybe (?) you should put up a sign telling: 'The dog will bite you if you put any junk mail here! ...grrr'

	kafetzou Tal av boðum: 7963	We don't have the term "free distribution" in English, so that won't be understood. As Pia says, the usual sign here is "No junk mail please".
