Luke? Is that you?

Recently, I started enjoying reading comments as much as I enjoyed translating those weird duosentences )) thank you guys!

[Weffdk]

I find the danish translation of this sentence and the use of "imidlertid" very peculiar. Naturally I would replace it with "Han er dog..."

[KILLEBILLE123]

me too, i would never say imidlertid, i would say either "imidlertidigt" or as you say: "han er dog..."

[the_Morag]

Anyone else fall in love with "imidlertid"? I loved it from the very first time I encountered it in this lesson... imidlertid imidlertid imidlertid _

[wojo4hitz]

Noooo

[SantiAnnd]

For me it happened with "RET..."

[ChoraPoetka]

Anyone has a hint, how to pronounce this word correctly? I feel powerless :(

[zakiwis]

punctuation makes all the difference in understanding the English translation

[Sabinka645549]

Han er dog is the same ?

[kiwitini]

Could this also mean "He is still my father"? As in, "Sure, he sold his house to buy a convertible, but he is still my father"?

[PauliinaVe4]

Is this word the same as "emellertid" in Swedish?

[Rich524475]

Imdlertid means in the meantime, meanwhile and however.

[AzizOmar8]

How in the world do you pronounce "imidlertid", coz for the life of me I couldn't get it right!

[MariaNehmeh]

I must say that imidlertid is indeed quite charming

[xiahashmi]

Although a native speaker will be able to see what word combination will give a "correct" answer for purposes of the app, "imidlertid" does not mean "however" at all. The item has been written by someone who does not speak both English and Danish to the level required to generate a correct translation and it should be corrected or removed entirely.

[DJsnob]

This sentence is completely wrong. The right translation is "He is temporarily my father"

[tgoldmcd]

Would "he is my father for the time being" work as a translation? That was where my brain went when I saw this.

[RachelColl108170]

Imidlertid usuallt means temporarily
