 		 #164374 - We appear to be stuck at that language barrier again
Responding to: ???'s previous message
It seems that conditional expressions do not translate well for you:

I said:
But if he wants a toy, then the Taiwanese one is better!

Ap Charles said:
how are you assuming he wants a TOY


I'm assuming nothing of the sort; look again:

I said:

But if he wants a toy, then the Taiwanese one is better!



That was a conditional expression - the if is key!

I didn't say that I knew anything;
I didn't say that I was assuming anything;
I just offered the suggestion, "what if..."

Other conditional phrases that you need to look out for are:

  • perhaps...
  • maybe...
  • might...
  • may/might be...
  • assuming...
  • consider...

    and words such as:

  • possibly...
  • guess...
  • presume...

    Is there an IC for RF tranceiver?            01/01/70 00:00      
       I am sure there is - but            01/01/70 00:00      
          Its no trouble, he can just get one made for him            01/01/70 00:00

       sample circuits with 8051            01/01/70 00:00      
          Modules are expensive            01/01/70 00:00      
             Some modules are not so expensive            01/01/70 00:00      
       Have a look at these ...            01/01/70 00:00      
          There are available modules here            01/01/70 00:00      
              1/3 of the price of the device , how many you require?            01/01/70 00:00

                Those Taiwanese 433 MHz modules            01/01/70 00:00      
                   support            01/01/70 00:00      
                      Why?            01/01/70 00:00

          There are similar rf modules here            01/01/70 00:00      
             RF is never that simple!            01/01/70 00:00      
             Nordic Transceiver was far better            01/01/70 00:00      
                It's in the eye of the beholder, isn't it?            01/01/70 00:00
