Your literal translation also looks good.
You know, I am never sure which should go first...
Well, let's start the poll. | | | 17 March 2011 21:24 | | | Dear Aneta!
Yes, it's always difficult to translate and evaluate proverbs...
However I always put the literal translation before the other translation, since in our FAQ we can read "...stick to the source text as closely as possible when translating..."
Let's wait for the poll's results then. |
