	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	Hi handyy, By "blotted" do you mean "dry" or "stained"? and by "lindens", "basswood"? If so, I think I still prefer: "Lindens shed tears from the soul" and "burried in the ground"

	handyy จำนวนข้อความ: 2118	Hi, --> blotted = stained --> linden = basswood --------- "Ihlamurlar can aÄŸladi", here it exactly says, "Lindens wept souls(rather than tears)", so I had some doubts while translating it.

	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	OK, let's set a poll and see if someone comes up with any ideas.

	kfeto จำนวนข้อความ: 953	hello handyy, lilian nice translation. Instead of just 'blotted' maybe "tarnished/soiled/stained/blotted with sin"?

	kafetzou จำนวนข้อความ: 7963	My suggestions: was blotted --> has been tainted split --> separation The tree is called "linden" in English - there's one right in front of my house, but I agree with Lilian that it sounds more poetic if we use a more literal translation: "The lindens grieved from their souls".

	kafetzou จำนวนข้อความ: 7963	handyy, you didn't change "blotted". This is not correct. CC: lilian canale

	handyy จำนวนข้อความ: 2118	no problem! but I just want to learn why "blotted" is not correct. I sincerely want to learn, doesn't "to blot" have the same meaning with "to taint" (--> to corrupt morally)??

	kafetzou จำนวนข้อความ: 7963	Nowadays, "to blot" usually means to soak up liquid, as in "I blotted the floor with a paper towel". I've never heard it with the same meaning as "to taint", but maybe in Britain or in an old-fashioned context. Also, the noun "blot" seems to have that moral meaning more often: "There's a blot on his character." But "to taint" is much better here because it's totally unambiguous - every English speaker would understand that it means "morally stained".

	kafetzou จำนวนข้อความ: 7963	Also, I think separation is better than split for the same reason - less easily misunderstood.
