Submetigx per ibnougenie
Font-lingvo: Franca

Si j'étais Ecrivain , à l'image d'Octavio PAZ , je vous dirais qu'entre le signe et la parole , j'invente des mots : Liberté qui s'invente et m'invente , à chaque jour , renouvelé! Et Si j'étais Poète , à l'instar de BAUDELAIRE , Je vous dirais : Oh Temps ! Tu m'as donné ta boue et j'en ai fait de l'Or !
Mais , Hélas , je ne suis ni l'un , ni l'autre !
Je veux tout simplement vous remercier pour le développement et l'amélioration qu'a connu votre merveilleux site!

Cel-lingvo: Angla

If I were a writer, like Octavio PAZ I would tell you that between sign and speech, I create
words: Liberty that builds both itself and me, everyday, once again!
And if I were a Poet, after BAUDELAIRE I would tell you: O Time! You gave me your mud and I turned it Gold!
But, Alas, I am neither one nor the other!
I simply want to thank you for the creation and the improvement of your marvelous website!

Hi RedShadow

Would 'invent' not be better than 'create' or 'build' here?
Otherwise the English looks good so I'll set a poll. Please let me know your thoughts on 'create' / 'build' versus 'invent'

"à l'instar de" has an opposite meaning to "unlike", "à l'instar de quelqu'un" means "the same way as someone would do/tell/write"

Thank you all for your comments.

And yes, I hesitated between 'invent', 'create' and 'make up'.
Though I felt that 'build' sounded better !

Also, it had to be created by itself (from what I understand). I've red that it was called a relexive verb that seems to not really exists in English.
'To build' was like closer to that extent IHMO.

And for "à l'instar de", my bad, I thought it meant to say unlike. :/

I've learned a lot through your corrections. Thank you !
