The same C. had to pay six "marche" for nine jars of pikes | Commentaires pour la traduction | il termine "vas, vasis",latino, è reso in italiano con la traduzione "vaso" forse troppo generica, infatti si parla di un contenitore molto capace (i lucci sono pesci abbastanza grandi) e adatto a contenere cibi. ho scelto il termine inglese "jar", ma andrebbero forse anche bene "pot" o "coal". marche in quanto unità di misura antica, va lasciata in originale. |

The phrase "forced himself" is a little too strong I think. In the source there was used a milder word "submisit". Best regards! | | | 6 Juillet 2009 09:35 | | | In latin "solvere" can mean "to pay a debt" and not to forced to pay.
| | | 6 Juillet 2009 09:56 | | | Jedi, Cicalina the whole phrase submisit se solvere translated forced himself to pay, (not only "solvere" ). I agree with her conception, but I would only use milder word instad of "forced".
Well, I don't agree that "solvere" means "to pay a debt".
First meanings are: to loosen, untie, release, free, dissolve, break,
further meaning is: to pay
But, you would be right if we had here versuram solvere, what just means to pay a debt.
Yours sincerely

Well, unfortunately the source isn't Russian, so we rather should go by the Latin version. This currency unit comes probably from Roman Empire, but not exactly from Rome. It's not so easy to determine its appropriate today's equivalent. However, in Latin a name of the unit is marca…
