Thank you for the sweet comment about my profile picture. My dog is a Labrador Retriever. He was 4 weeks old on the picture, I have followed his growth since he was born. Today he is a big and cheeky 1-year-old dog.

So, I think the best verb would be "nurture".

Yes, I don't know if the Swedish "voters" will "buy it", but the meaning is the same (about), right?

Ok, I'll edit.
Thank you Lilian.

Lilian,
sorry if I nag today.
I think that "nurture" is more when a person is responsible for someone, right?

In this context it doesn’t say so. The meaning is that s/he has watched this dog the whole way (from puppy to "adult" ). Maybe this is a child who writes …and I guess that the person that nurtures this dog is the adults around. (That’s the most common anyway I guess)

That’s why I think that we will have negative votes here.

I think it's not exactly the real meaning.
"nuttured him' means : giving him his meals and so on".

The Danish words " jeg har fuldt ham lige fra han blev født" means more : " I have been taking care of him since he was born" ( of course it's includes giving him his meals but a bit more than that.

The Danish word " fræk"
means something like "cheeky" but not striking.

Hi gamine,

"nurture" means "bring up, raise" it is not only "feed" but also "take care, follow the growth". It's used for animals the same way we use "bring up" for children.

Can't you just say: "I have known him since he was born"

?

I don't think "har fuldt ham" (should have been fulgt, a common spelling error) implies taking care of, rather following (his development)

Pia, if you feel more comfortable using "take care of him", you can leave it. It's always a good thing to improve vocabulary, that's why I sometimes suggest some words that are not usually known by non-native speakers.
I'm sure gamine will change her negative vote, since it's not really justified here.

And gamine, a negative vote is given when a translation is really wrong or when after we give a suggestion or make a correction, the translator doesn't agree. But when our suggestions are accepted, there is no reason to vote against a work that has an accurate final version.
You'd better wait a bit before placing the vote.

Lilian

Ok, but what about wkn's proposal: "I have following him since he was born"?

"I have followed his growth" would be Ok, but if you use only "followed" it sounds like you have been chasing after him all the time.

Liliane . I was asked to evaluate and I just did it the way I felt with no bad meaning. And the danish word " fræk"" decided my vote. I know
YOU are the expert and a real good expert, moreover.
I'm just trying to do my best, but I received you 5 to5.

gamine, what I tried to tell you is that: you were asked to help evaluating a translation, but you don't have to vote against it when there are minor mistakes you want to correct. You can simply give your opinion and suggestion by clicking on the language of the translation instead of the red ball. You will get to the page and post your comment. After your suggestion is accepted you can vote positively. See what I mean?

gamine, you helped me a lot with that word "cheeky", and I appreciate it a lot.

Ok Lilian, I'll edit (Thanks again!)

But my first "choice" wasn't THAT bad this time, even if they probably don't had to hunt that poor dog all the time.

When thinking ...that's maybe what you do (a lot) when a dog is little, at least if he (or she) isn't that well-mannered.

Yeah, those puppies are really time-consuming!

If everybody agrees I'll set a new poll and try to validate this transation with only positive votes, OK?
