Hi Pias

Just a small edit, I suggest you put:

"my bleeding skin clean", rather than "my skin bleeding clean".

I'm not too good at Swedish, so I've opened a poll.

Oh...Tantine,
now I see..the meaning is that he/she wash her skinn bleeding clean, not wash her bleeding skin clean. How to put that right in English?

"Inside out" instead of "outside in"?
(Is "outside in" often used in english? It's just an expression, so despite the order of it being the opposite in Swedish I think it doesn't matter... I think the best is to use the most "usual" expression if there is any such (or maybe both are okey? I just never heard any "outside in" before...)

Not so important, and I might be wrong, but anyway...

Absolutely Piagabriella

I missed that out It should read "inside out" in English.

Pia - I'm not sure what you mean exactly by the skin "bleeding clean", is it someone who has "scrubbed themself to the bone", in that case I can accept the poetic term of a skin "bleedng clean".

Pia, this translation is already accepted, that's why I haven't done any corrections...

Tantine, shall we (I) edit ??

Yes, I noticed that... so then, if wrong, it should already have been corrected... ???

But if it should be changed I guess we should do it anyway? Well, somewhat confusing...

Hi Pia
The "thing" is that dramati accepted this translation before Tantine agreed to your proposal, so maybe he think that it's ok to say: "outside in"

Hi dramati,
could you please take a look at the discussion above and tell if this accepted translation should be corrected...

Is it ok as it is?

At open windows I turn my clothes outside in and at the sink I wash my skin bleeding clean
Is the line in question. As a poem, you can pretty much say it either way...and yes, I have heard, in Wisconsin and other states with a large Norse population, the term wash my skin bleeding clean, so it is ok. The issue about the cloths...well, sure you could say inside out...but again, in a poem we can often say things a bit strangely. If you think that inside out is better, fine...outside in...also fine, if you, the translator, thinks it catches the spirit of the poem.

Hi Pias

As "Admin" I have an edit button on this so I was able to intervene despite dramati having validated before we had finished our work!

phew, all is well that ends well

Let me know if this is the definitive version?

Okay, sounds a bit like it wasn't a change that really had to be done... I didn't know all that dramati told and english is not really my language... so sorry about giving you some not so necessary work!
