Bubble of the price?

The price (of the car) has a lot of bubbles.

Do you say like that?(I just translated what is said in my language in English.) The intended meaning is the car is not that expensive but it is because advertisement fee makes the price of it more expensive.

Sorry Moon, your sentence makes no sense to me. What do you think of: Even though the car is not that expensive, advertising fees have increased its price. Cheers, John

Hi,

I found some expressions that may be similar to what I intended above.

They are the following: 1.http://endic.naver.com/popManager.nhn?m=search&query=when a bubble

Answer) No. It still makes no sense.

You said: "The intended meaning is the car is not that expensive but it is because advertisement fee makes the price of it more expensive.


When an economic bubble bursts, prices go DOWN. You said above that advertising fees make the price of the car go UP.

Ah... I thought bubble has a figurative expression: increase; I thought bubble gets bigger when as we blow it.

So the examples from my dictionary mean the price goes down?

Not exactly.

As the bubble gets bigger, the prices increase.

Once the bubble explodes, the prices fall dramatically.

It depends upon when you are writing about the bubble - before or after :-)

Hi moon

What is your native language that you want to translate it? Is it Farsi?

Because bubbles are used in Farsi in the meaning you said.

Hi, hrsanei.

My native language is Korean.

Yeah, as Paris explained at his last post, bubble in my language is translated the same.
