Translation - Turkish-English - Bu şehir yerden bile ağır bu gece...

If there was one dead person underneath, no more

there was not even a dead person left underneath

iki cümle aynı anlamda ise doğru,değilse senin çevirin anlam olarak yanlış.

CC: kafetzou

not even a dead person left underneath


benim önerim bu cümle eğer sence doğruysa şayet...

Thanks, serba - I think I hadn't understood the original (olsun kalmamış).

CC: serba

This is in singular, isn't it?
it is the dying that makes cities

CC: kafetzou

No - it's plural: the dying (people).

CC: samanthalee

can't it be more poetic than this? and does "the dead" and "the dying" mean the same? çünkü burada "ölenler" "ölüyor olanlar değil" "ölü olanlar" anlamına geliyor

ölenler ölüler ile aynı mı?

evet aynı

O zaman yanlış çevirdim. Değiştireceğim.

Tantine, if you've recovered from your hornet sting, could you give another shot at making this poetic, but without rhyme?

Hi

I'll have a try

This city is heavier than the ground tonight
No dead are left beneath
But it is death that lightens cities
Thin enough to take flight

I cant help but make the last line rhyme. It's a very short line and thyping seems to be the only way to make it "stick" to the text.

I can have another try in the morning if this is still not up to the mark.

smy, do you like Tantine's version better? If so, I'll edit it with this one.

CC: smy

don't change it, it's okey. Thank you all Kafetzou, Tantine and Serba!

Hi All,

Glad I could help
