"The demon couldn't cause much harm to the clergy, except for assigning to it reckless serves."
CC: Aneta B. | | |
20 Juin 2010 15:05 | | | Hi Lilly, I would rather say:
"The devil/demon couldn't cause to the clergy worse harm than to give it completely negligent servants"
=The worst harm what demon can cause to the clergy is just giving it negligent servants. (meaning)  | | |
20 Juin 2010 15:54 | | | Hi Aneta,
I changed a bit the words in order to keep the rhyme of the original, in Portuguese. You know that's not an easy task when translating
Anyway, I think the meaning was kept, wasn't it?
Why did you use "worse"? Isn't it "much"?  | | |
20 Juin 2010 16:14 | | | "plura mala" actually means "more bad things" (literally), but I translated it by "worse harm", because it is the best interpretation of the words here I believe.
When I compare our versions I can see a crucial diffrence, dear. From yours "The demon couldn't cause much harm to the clergy, except for assigning to it reckless serves." I could deduce that the demon cannot cause much harm! Meanwile he is able a lot! And the worse harm what he can do is just giving negligent servants to the clergy.
Yes, not an easy task when translating... Sorry for my English. | | |
20 Juin 2010 16:38 | | | It also can be read this way:
"Demon couldn't harm the clergy more than by giving negligent servants to it".
<edit> cannot --> couldn't (past tense!) | | |
20 Juin 2010 21:46 | | | Got it! and fixed | | |
20 Juin 2010 22:26 | | | Uff! I hope so. 
To be precise I should add that the second part literally starts:
..., than when he gave...
But, we don't have to translate literally, do we?  |
