Sensei to hanashi ga aru tte itsutte ta yo. Don'na hanashi ka shira nai kedo.
He said he had to talk to the teacher about something. I don't know what it was about, though.


This word is familiar to me. I'm sure I'm overlooking something very obvious but what is it?

I haven't the foggiest idea! I realise this is useless: I'm only answering so that you won't think we're all ignoring you. :?

I know my comment isn't helpful at all either.
Here's what I think.
Is there a typo or something missing here? :shock: :oops:

I would probably translate the sentence like this.
先生と話があるって言いてたよ。
sensei to hanashi ga aru tte iite ta yo
He said he had to talk to the teacher about something.

Andy San, where does this sentence come from? You used to offer the lesson number. How about this one?

LI S6 L3.

Here's the kanji, if it helps:

先生と 話があるって 言ってたよ。どんな話か 知らないけど。

(Grin, grin, grin!)
The romaji surely has a typo.

It should be
"sensei to hanashi ga arutte itte ta yo."

I just listened to the audio. You're right. Must be a typo.

andy-san, マイケルsan, Teabag-san,
It surely is a typo. We'll fix it as soon as possible.
Thank you for lesson number info!
