"I need to buy a café sometime."

Translation: Mi devas aĉeti kafejon iam.

[Rippler]

"I need to get my wife a present for our anniversary. Coffee? Hmm, not good enough...I know!

THE WHOLE CAFE"

[jtwardowski]

What is the difference between Bezonas and Devas?

[phle70]

according to Lernu! (lernu.net):

• bezoni (bezon·i)
  (tr) to need, to want (emphatic)

• devi (dev·i)
  (intr) to ought to, to have to, must, should

(I got this as a "Mark all correct translations", otherwise I would have chosen bezonas instead of devas, as I personally don't have that kind of urge to own a café. ;-) )

DEVI =/= BEZONI

[deactivated user]

Did you mean "Devi does not equal Bezoni"? If so I agree. I had the English sentence to translate into Esperanto, and I would have used "bezonas" if it were an option. I would have used "devas" if the English had said "must" or "have to".
