PARENTAL ADVISORY: If your children use TATOEBA to study languages, please take the time to search any choice words you wouldn't want them to read - and don't be shy! You won't believe some of the uncensored filth they allow on here, since they feel "language is language."

As long as you are here, we might as well begin.

Now that it has stopped raining, we can go home.

I am young; and, as I have been your neighbour, you know my character.

Since all tasks have been completed without delay, we are ready to start the next phase of development.
