Story:

A young woman, Mette, is a member of a neo-Nazi gang, while her day job is to take care of four crazy old people that all are just waiting to die. Her life becomes a journey into a burlesque fairytale, where the rules of the game are created by Mette herself. Mette is indifferent about her way of life, until one night she assaults a man, kicking him senseless. Waking up the day after, she realizes that something is wrong, and in company with her crazy oldies she longs for respect and love. She can tell that the old folks are marginalized by the modern society, but together they create a world and a voice of their own.

Everybody loves me.
Cata ama me.

Everybody loves me.
Cata ama me.

The ia-en dictionary says that "cata" is an adjective, so you wrote "every loves me", with a noun missing.

Perhaps "Totes ama me"?

The ia-en dictionary says that "cata" is an adjective, so you wrote "every loves me", with a noun missing.

Thanks for this hint. I'm complete beginner with that. Please, could you give more details of that ia-en dictonary?

sr-2008 lists: jedermann = cata un(o); tote le mundo
db-2011 lists: toto 1 sb. le >total, le quanto complete; 2 adv. completemente
igm-Mulaik-2015 lists: toto = everything (1)

(1) Does that mean that "toto" can not point to persons?

Perhaps "Totes ama me"?

I'm complete beginner with that: So, I have to ask: In Interlingua, is it possible to make adjective an plural like "tote"+"s"? Or, does it mean something "besitzanzeigend" (ownership "-'s"; whats the English linguistic expression for that?)

l20-Schild-1970 "5. Lektion - die besitzanzeigenden Fürwörter"

I remember that there was A-B-C style online dictionary at interlingua.com. But I can't find it again. Does somebody have idea where it is located?

Please, could you give more details of that ia-en dictonary?

The one that started everything; "Interlingua-English Dictionary, A Dictionary of the International Language, compiled by the Research Staff of the International Auxiliary Language Association, under the direction of Alexander Gode, Ph.D.".

I found a PDF of it somewhere (prepared by Richard Young in 2007, it seems), though I don't remember where.

sr-2008 lists: jedermann = cata un(o); tote le mundo
db-2011 lists: toto 1 sb. le >total, le quanto complete; 2 adv. completemente
igm-Mulaik-2015 lists: toto = everything (1)

What are these files?

(1) Does that mean that "toto" can not point to persons?

I believe so; in such pronouns -o is neuter and refers to things, and -e is masculine and refers to people. Similarly with ille/illa/illo, iste/ista/isto.

In Interlingua, is it possible to make adjective an plural like "tote"+"s"?

Yes, when used by itself, as a kind of noun.

So, "le ric homines" (the rich people, die reichen Menschen) but "le rics" (the rich, die Reichen).

See also §39 in the Interlingua Grammar:

Adjectives used as pronouns or nouns behave grammatically like ordinary nouns and can be pluralized.

Le puero ha quatro conilios, duo mascules e duo femines
'The boy has four rabbits, two male and two female ones'

A causa de lor eterne mal humor nos appella les "le acres"
'Because of their eternal bad humor we call them 'the acrid (ones)'

(The link above is to the original English version; there is also a version translated into Interlingua available from interlingua.com itself.)

I remember that there was A-B-C style online dictionary at interlingua.com. But I can't find it again. Does somebody have idea where it is located?

interlingua.com lets you search the Interlingua-English Dictionary. Perhaps that is what you meant?

Finally, I am reminded of the Klingon mailing-list FAQ, which has as question 2.5:

2.5 I've just finished reading TKD and I'm translating The Illiad into Klingon; anyone want to help?

We're delighted you're here! But, slow down, speed racer!

How do you expect to translate something like "Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans", before you've mastered "See spot run"? For some reason, a large number of beginners pick up TKD , and want to dive into the most complicated tasks. Unbelievable.

Here's an idea. Hang around the list for a while. Read everything you see that's written in Klingon. Try some simple, original sentences in tlhIngan Hol , within the KLBC . Write about what's on your mind, what you're doing on a daily basis, tell us about yourself. Work on putting your own thoughts and words into Klingon, before you wrestle with someone else's.

If you are still a beginner, perhaps it would be a good idea to pick a language course or a grammar and start with short texts of your own, based on the words and grammar you have learned so far, rather than trying to translate complex texts that others have written.

Also, if you have access to none of a grammar, a teacher, or a comprehensive textbook, it will be difficult to know what is correct and what is not.

Its points to ressources listed at my first posting inside this thread.

"... If you are still a beginner, perhaps it would be a good idea to pick a language course or a grammar and start with short texts of your own, based on the words and grammar you have learned so far, rather than trying to translate complex texts that others have written..."

Yes, I got the point. I once started to digitize Gopsill's textbook "Interlingua Today" (Third impression 2002; 269 pages). Its most extensive textbook for Interlingua I have seen. But it looks like it would need much more efforts to digitize Gopsill's textbook than Schild's textbook "Interlingua in 20 Lektionen"(31 pages). Even with Schild's digitalization I'm not ready by now. Digitization of Gopsill's would need much more energy I don't have yet. (30 pages A4 versus 269 pages A5)

Also, if you have access to none of a grammar, a teacher, or a comprehensive textbook, it will be difficult to know what is correct and what is not.

Schild's textbook has very detailed descriptions. That was reason why I started to digitize it. I have to confess that digitized Schild's textbook gives me main motivation to stay with Interlingua.
