What language is this? Translation requested.

I had a text message sent to my cell phone in another language (a wrong number) - and I'm curious to know what it says/means... I figure it doesn't hurt to post it and ask here since this is such a multicultural place.

The text message was: "Sare koochate soolakhi!"

Hopefully it isn't anything offensive - if it is I'll ask to have the thread locked ASAP.

... perhaps even some thoughts as to the language?

My guess is Japanese..

The text message was: "Sare koochate soolakhi!"

Based on http://www.google.ca/search?q=soolakhi , I would say it's Persian.
Ask someone over in the Nouroz thread...

sounds like something about chocolate and a souvlaki

I honestly have no clue...

My co-worker says it's Kurdish, and it says something like "Your daughter is bald" or something like that...
hahah

[bang]

Orrr she says it could be "Your daughter isn't covering her hair/Your daughter's hair is bare"
Like how some Kurdish women wear scarves to cover their hair.

..knowwhatimean?

That would make sense...

Thanks! If that is what it says.... it absolutely confirms it was a wrong number...

I don't have a daughter (or son for that matter)...

That you know of???

This is Persian, or Farsi, it doesn't have either daughter or bald in it.


"Sare koochate soolakhi!" means there's a pothole in your street in Persian. It's probably some personal joke and it's not formal language it's slang.
