| | Hi merdogan
"...full of..." would be better than "full with"
I've set a poll.

| | affectation? is it possible to make it plural? we should do it i think. |
| | 2009年 जनवरी 22日 22:36 |
| | It cannot be "full of with", with has to go.

| bgl88चिठ्ठीको सङ्ख्या: 32 | Yep, definitely need to remove "with".
And I didn't know 'affectation' was a word until now lol.
But I'm not sure whether the French 'artifice' would suggest more *deception* / trickery, than affectation, which a dictionary informs me means 'behaviour intended to impress' ? |

| | Only full with or full of
Artifice = joy |

| Freyaचिठ्ठीको सङ्ख्या: 1910 | full of, more than enough. |

| | "My life is full of affectation". To use two prepositions like this isn't correct English. |

| Leinचिठ्ठीको सङ्ख्या: 3389 | yup, better without 'with' |

| | Hi all
Thanks Francky for the "with", I must have misexplained what I meant
I agree with you here that "affectation" does not seem adapted to the text.
The French dictionary "Le Petit Larousse Illustré" ed. 2004 defines the word "artifice" as a
"procedé ingénieux, habile pour tromper; ruse"
which translates as
"ingenious process, fit for deceiving"
Maybe it would be better to put
"My life is full of pretence"
What do you all think? |
| | 2009年 जनवरी 23日 16:21 |
| | Perhaps "deception" or "deceits" would fit... |
| | 2009年 जनवरी 23日 17:02 |
| | I guess pretence is a good idea Tantine |

| | artifice is not affectation! |
| | 2009年 जनवरी 25日 13:43 |
| | I think "affettazione" should be translated as "affection". |
| | 2009年 जनवरी 25日 20:58 |
| | My life is full of affectations. |
