Explanation:
The previous translation given by Monika is correct. The only change I made is in the translation of the verb phrase "talk about".

You can use either one of the translations and the message will get accross.

disagree  Edi: I think Monika's translation is closer to the original.
2 hrs
  -> Monika's translation is correct. However, what is more common "bisedoj rreth nje personi" apo "bisedoj per nje person"?

disagree  Eva T: 'Rreth' eshte me e perdorshme se 'per' ne rastin konkret. Gjithashtu tingellon me mire.

Explanation:
This is in response to Edi's comment. I didn't mean to make a fuss about the translation. However, we shouldn't be afraid to give our versions and opinions and let the asker choose. There are as many versions of translations out there as there are translators. Every translator has his/her own style. I try to stay away from word per word tranlation by offering what is the most common use of the phrase or synonym in the target language.

Sorry, for the misunderstanding. I hope the asker is not completely confused. As I said from the beginning, the asker can use either version and the meaning will get across.

disagree  Eva T: Hi Anila. Often I find your disagreemnts very unreasonable. I see nothing wrong putting a second opinion, however, we should not deviate the main meaning to smth else, just for the sake of another version. If something is right, then it is right. Best, Ev
