Does this sentence mean
I want you to tell lies still for a few hours.
?
I think all 4 French sentences translate it that way.

La frazo en la portugala estas la sola, kiu havas signifon koheran kun la angla. La aliaj, en la dana, franca, pola kaj Esperanto estas malĝustaj, ĉar oni tradukis "lie still" (resti en ripozo) kiel "mensogi ankoraŭ" (!!!).

OK, danepo, I said the Danish translation was wrong because I checked it on Google Translate (I cannot speak Danish).

Please forgive me.
