Please could some kind person provide an English translation of the following, as the automated translation does not make much sense.

muchas gracias pero yo necesitaba la casa completa ya que viajamos ocho personas otra vez ser�.

I understand that he needed to book the whole house as they are a party of 8 people, but I am stuck on the "otra vez sera"

Many thanks in advance

It will be another time.

(Somewhat literal. A native would probably say "It'll have to be some other time.")

Ah! Now it makes perfect sense. Thank you very much

Hi Trinaka,

It's the future tense of "to be", meaning "it will be another time". The rest of the sentence is exactly what you mention!

Best,

Aunque me quedan un par de dudas hare mi intento....... tu dices en la oracion en espa�ol "yo necesitaba" y "viajamos" o sea "nosotros", pero en ingles dices "he needed" lo que significa "el necesitaba" y hablas de "they are" que es "ellos son", lo que estoy tratando de decir es que estan distintas las oraciones pero en todo caso yo lo hare conservando la idea pero como lo diria yo:

Thank you anyway but I needed to book the whole house as we are a party of 8 people, it'll be next time.

Que te parece asi?
