NGO GLOBAAL is een fictieve,virtuele ngo, bestaande uit een consortium van virtuele anonieme en/of openbare personen, die de handen uit de mouwen willen steken om goed bezig te zijn als mens in het milieu. In de mate dat het leger van virtuele anonieme en/of openbare personen dat goed bezig wil zijn zich omvormt tot reële anonieme en/of openbare personen, kan NGO GLOBAAL uitgroeien tot een wereldwijd goed bezig zijnde reële ngo en/of anonimaat, dat de validatie van haar leden beoogt, waaraan éénieder kan deelnemen en die een stapsgewijze wereldwijde verbetering voor mens en milieu creërt.

Hi Nooij,

This line, the way you translated it, seems to be an incomplete sentence.
Could the beginning be: "Interact properly engaged, (imperative form)..." ?

Hi Lilian Canale,

To be honest, "goed bezig zijn" is something one would say in daily life, not in a text from a professional(?) company like this one. "Interact properly engaged" on the other hand, looks very professional and would be "juist geëngageerd interageren". "Doing well interactively" is the literal translation of what 'ngoglobaal' wants translated.

But I definitely understand your doubts, so I'd surely understand if you find my translation incomplete.

Well...I think Lein will be able to evaluate your translation better

I just think the tense used makes the sentence sound incomplete and in that case, it would need dots at the end. See what I mean?

Lein?

I guess that consulting Lein might be a good idea indeed.

I certainly get what you mean - perhaps the translation shouldn't be too literal. Let's see what Lein thinks about it.

Thank you for correcting me, by the way.

Hi both

Yes, I saw this request earlier (before you had translated it) and it has an awkward wording. In part, that may be because this is Flemish, which occasionally sounds quite different from Dutch as spoken in The Netherlands.

As the title says, this is a mission statement. In this case, I think 'to do well' would be better than 'doing well'. I also think 'wheels' may not be the best translation for 'raderen' here. I agree it is a good literal translation, but the idea here is of cogs, or links (in a chain). I think 'cogs' would work here. My suggestion for the translation would be:

To do well, working interactively, in the interest of human beings and the environment by creating sustainable, positive cogs.

What do both of you think?

Ah, on the subject of incompleteness of the sentence: it is, strictly speaking, incomplete but I think this is the way in which mission statements are usually worded.

Hi!

I think you're right; the reason for the rather unusual wording may be because the requester is a Fleming. Your version of the English translation seems a lot more complete - and I'm convinced that the requester must've been looking for a translation similar to yours.

Thank you for your time and efforts

Thank YOU! I have edited the translation and set a poll. ext time, until a poll is set, you are free to edit as much as you like in your own translations.

Good suggestion! Nooij, are you happy for me to change this?

Excuse me for my late reaction!

Thank you for editing my translation, and yes, it'd be completely fine (and appreciated) if you change 'cogs' to 'cog-wheels'.

Done
(I checked and it is one word, so 'cogwheel' rather than 'cog-wheel'.)
