Vidim da po forumu svi pisu "Sorry" i kada treba i kada ne treba, i zato otvaram ovu temu u kojoj bih probao da razjasnim kada sta ide od tih izvinjenja.

"Excuse Me" ima direktant ekvivalent u nasem jeziku "Izvinite me", i upotrebljava se kada morate da upadnet nekome u rec, tj. da prekinete trenutni tok radnje/razgovora zbog necega sto mora hitno da se uradi/kaze.

"I apologize" = "Primite moje izvinjenje". Naveo sam ovo poredjenje jer najbolje opisuje situacije u kojima se upotrebljava "I apologize". Mnogi ljudi grese, i u situacijama kada treba da se izvine za nesto sto su uradili oni upotrebe "I'm sorry".

"I'm sorry" = "Zao mi je". "Zao mi je" mozda najbolje objasnjava kako se upotrebljava "I'm sorry".


Mozda malo odudara od nase upotrebe, ali recimo kada nekome upadnete u kancelariju da bi ste nesto pitali, a ne mozete da sacekate svoj red (hitna situacija), kod nas bi ste upotrebili "Zao mi je sto ovako upadam", ali u engleskom ovde bolje "cuci" "I apologize for interruption...".


Elem, da sumiram neke smernice:
- kada treba da se izvinite pre nego sto nesto uradite - Excuse i Apologize
- kada je nesto vec poslo naopako - Apologize (kada ste vi krivi) i Sorry (u vidu saucesca/samilosti)


Nije ovo ni iz bliza dovoljno da bi se potpuno skontalo gde sta tacno ide, ali se nadam da stvara barem pribliznu sliku.

Za utehu, Nemci grese kod ovoga isto koliko i mi.
Ako je jos neka uteha, nemci nikako da skontaju da u engleskom ne postoji rec "simpatican", koja se u nemackom cesto upotrebljava, pa gde god cujete/procitate "sympatic" odmah vam je jasno da je to nemac pisao engleski

I apologize, but you two will be excused from the ModZone, and you'll probably be sorry to hear that.
Mislim da je ovo dobar primer

bobby, I'm sorry to have to tell you that you are not quite right about this one...

Mozhe i sorry kada smo mi krivi, itekako. A i inache se "sorry" koristi i za obichno izvinjavanje (u smislu "apologize"), kako u formalnom tako i u neformalnom govoru; "I apologize" je formalno. "Sorry" se povrh svega koristi u mnogo vishe razl. situacija, a tek u jednoj od njih je "I apologize" samo formalniji sinonim za "I'm sorry". "Excuse me" je posebna pricha, ali isto mozhe i kada je neshto vec uradjeno, ne samo pre...
Da ne petljam, evo detaljno sa primerima:

[ ovo je nashe "Izvinite me" ili "Ako biste me izvinili (na trenutak)..."
