"This coat is big for me."

Translation: המעיל הזה גדול עליי.

[Darthdanieldoom]

What about: "המעיל הזה יותר מדי גדול בשבילי"?

[airelibre]

Possible.

[1Talmidah]

And also " המעיל הזה יותר מדי גדול לי " ?

[Melkysmom]

I wrote that but was marked wrong :(

[jeftakels]

That would be "This coat is too big for me"

[Theresa754142]

On the question page, ‏המעיל הזה גדול מדי עליי was the correct answer, but here, ‏מדי is omitted.

יתר מדי seems weird as i have seen it as to big for me or just to big???

The better (American) English translation is "This coat is big on me" and also works as a more literal translation of the Hebrew.

[ThomBoye]

Nailed it! :)

Is there a rule when to use בשביל and when go use ל?

[danny912421]

Prepositions rarely translate, so basically it comes down to remembering which preposition to use when. This goes for learning any language.

[sheila547646]

I'm wondering that as well

You just dont compare coats to people, stupid Google Artificial Intelligence to-be-improved translation algoritm...
