	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	English is Ok, I just was wandering is it would be more natural making the sentence : For not being able to sightsee anything, the traveller will leave the place. or For not having been able... What do you think?

	kfeto Number of messages: 953	yeah,that is more natural, but the turkish has the same problem: there is no cause and effect relationship expressed between the not seeing and the leaving. it reads more descriptive or even making a prediction about the future there are several ways of expressing 'For not ' in turkish, none of them are used in the source so i think it was deliberate on the part of the turkish i could be wrong about that, if so the poll will tell hopefully
