Well, I would hope that the troublemakers can take the week to figure out
the answer.  If you're really, really, curious, I'll give you the answer on
Monday before I leave.

Hint:  "te" is not possessive as Cindy correctly surmised.  Those of you
familiar with various Romance languages will know, the position of the
subject, object, and the verb is not necessarily the same here as in
English.

Keep out of trouble, and good luck!

Kellie,

Your translaton makes more sense -- I mean, it sounds
better.  Neither translation makes sense. I was
thinking that maybe "te" was objective rather than
possessive.

Pratik, you can't just throw out words and phrases and
plan to go away and leave us dangling. Reel  us in,
please.
