TELEKOMUTFÖRSÄLJNINGEN KLAR I SLUTET AV 2008 Försäljningen av Lettlands telekomföretag skall vara avklarad i slutet av 2008. Det är den lettiska regeringen och ledningen för TeliaSonera överens om. TeliaSonera har bekräftat att man är beredda att fortsätta samtalen om det förslag som regeringen lagt fram. Denna förutsätter ett utbyte av aktier, så att TeliaSonera övertar statens aktier i mobiloperatören Latvijas Mobilais telefons (LMT) mot att det svensk-finska företaget lämnar ifrån sig sina aktier i Lattelecom. | Remarks about the translation | Översättning till brittisk engelska. |

thank you for the edits!
But I'm not sure about one change, I think that "That is, if the Latvian government and the management for TeliaSonera agreed about." must be: "That is the Latvian government and the management for TeliaSonera agreed about." (Not IF, because they are already agreed about it.)
May I edit back ?
| | | 26 May 2008 13:12 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | Agree with you . I have voted for because the meaning is okay, but I'll have to admit that I didn't like that sentence neither: I would just have said : " that is what the Latvian etc", but not " if" because in the Swedish version it isn't written. | | | 26 May 2008 13:13 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | | | | 26 May 2008 15:05 | | | So, girls, instead of "That is" I think it should be "Since" (Seeing that)
" Since the Latvian government and the management for TeliaSonera agreed about."
Is that the meaning?
| | | 26 May 2008 16:08 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | Hi again Lilian. I know, you are yourself quite good at Swedish, but if you use "" since" it doesn't give the same meaning. If you use " seing at" I 'd say : " shall be settled at the end of 2008, seeing that the Latvian government and the management for TeliaSonera agreed about it".
But you are much better at English than I am, so I can only give you my comments, but it's you who
MUST decide. Lilian , YOU are the expert!!!!
Smile. | | | 26 May 2008 16:41 | | piasNumber of messages: 8113 | Hm, I don't think that there shall be a conjunction here. (since, seeing that) The meaning is just that "they are agreed about it".
Is it possible to write:
"The Latvian government and the management for TeliaSonera is agreed about that"
? | | | 26 May 2008 17:22 | | | What about:
"There is an agreement on that, between the Latvian government and the management for TeliaSonera"
