"Quanti chilogrammi di carne prendiamo?"

Translation: How many kilograms of meat do we get?

[GoodLordigans]

Is "...are we taking?" a correct translation?

[Wiijimmy]

Yes.

[Lewistrick]

I don't know, but I used '...bring?' and that wasn't counted as correct either.

[vivi8d]

I'm not a native speaker but I think "prendere" means "to take" as opposed to "to bring." Or at least that's one of its many translations.

[Sassicat]

... Or to get

[tom1159]

to bring use "portare"

[johnh838893]

Prendiamo means we take or we get, so why is we take marked as wrong in tbis question please?

[deactivated user]

the use of GET is awful. This is supposed to be English.

[BrandoMuzz]

The point is that in italian you can use both "chilo" or "kilo", actually in scientific contest "kilo" is more appropriate, reffered to the IS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units

[Beattie51]

I got marked wrong for saying kilogramme which is an alternative spelling. Sad face.

[jerryraynelson3]

Where so they use that spelling?

[Paul..McAuley]

Kilos worked for me :)

[apreso]

What is w rt ong with this???

[MichaelDiS298001]

doesn't prendere also mean to buy or to purchase? Or is it implied that the meat was stolen?
