Cześć.
I paid for a Polish translation and have an issue with a sentence in it. Frustratingly, the translator rendered the following sentence thus:
"Czy Mel Brooks stworzył postać Agenta 86 po spotkaniu z Tobą?"
Meaning in English: "Did Mel Brooks get the inspiration for Agent Eighty-Six after he met you?"
The immediate problem with the translation is that the character is speaking, so "86" is useless to me since one cannot speak digits.
I am having the very devil of a time trying to render that number in spoken form.
Thus, my question:
I have gathered that "Agenta" is the accusative-masculine form. How would I render ossiemdziessiąt sześć in the accusative-masculine? Or, if "Agenta" is not, in fact, the accusative-masculine, what case is it, and what form would ossiemdziessiąt sześć then take?
Dziękuję.
