30 September 2008 17:18 | | | Perhaps we should say: " the solution (?) for life"
"He could give dead things life." That doesn't sound well.
What about:
"He managed to bring dead things (beings) back to life" | | |
2 October 2008 19:39 | | | Hi Gamine, I'm still waiting for your edits. | | |
2 October 2008 23:21 | | | OK Gamine, you've made the edits, however there's still something that doesn't sound well.
Although it may be the exact words used in the original, that expression: 'solution for life' is weird.
Could that be 'secret of (endless) life'?
You don't have to put the ".." in the translation, I removed them. | | |

gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | Lilian. It could be "the secret of life" even if the Swedish word is "Solution". Actually, it sounds much better . It's not "endless" life. He gives people
life back for a moment and then they die again. I have googled it before, that's why I know it, but really like your sentence above . " the secret of life" , it really sounds good to me. | | |
2 October 2008 23:58 | | | Great! No more edits then, I'll set a poll, OK? | | |
