English to Armenian translations [Non-PRO]
General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters | | English term or phrase: I have a book / You have my book. | I was wondering how you say these two phrases expressing the use of "have" in Armenian? Please write the translation in Roman letters too.
Thank you very much for your help.
Sincerely,
Brian Costello

Excellent. Thank you very much for your answers.
I've read that many languages in the world express the notion of "have" differently than English. Armenian seems to express it more the way that Russian and the Celtic languages (Irish, Welsh, Breton etc.) do.
Thanks again!
