| | Hi sirinler,
I'm afraid I don't really understand the phrase in English.
Even if I correct the grammar, I don't know what it means.
"The news is decided upon when they are reapeated"
or
"The news is decided upon when it is repeated"
I have opened a poll as my Turkish is still at a minimum level

| | Probably is supposed to say: The news is decided up on when it is repeated. This would mean that a decision is made concerning news (I suppose like a news paper) when it has more than one source. |

| | Hi dramati
Thanks
I see what you mean. Do you think we can turn a better phrase in Enlgish?

| | When a thing is often repeated they decided to make it news. |

| | I thought you opened a vote? I see that it has not been done yet. What to do? |

| | Hi dramati, hi sirinler
Sirinler, you have completely rewritten the English version and it doesn't seem to say the same thing as the first version.
"News" = information that is given in newpapers, on the television...
"New ones" = not old ones.
Maybe the source text is not too clear?
I've opened another poll. I don't know why the other one didn't work.

| | THE original one means "the new things" to be permanent when they are repeated; not the information..So in order not to cause any misunderstanding, I have changed it..
also, maybe "decide on" can't give the appropriate meaning, so you can look at it again.. |

| | The new ones are decided upon when they are renewed. |

| | but the new ones cant "decide on" or "repeat" by themselves. )..they are not something live. |

| smyNombro da afiŝoj: 2481 | "the new ones" is ok because it doesn't refer to "news (recent events)", it refers to "people new in anything"
and the translation should be this way:
"the new ones decide upon what they repeat" |

| | Thanks smy
I thought we were going to get stuck!!!
I'll validate it as it stands (I'll just take off the inverted commas that have slipped in at the end)
Thanks everyone
