Cinababy drops
Indications
---------
VSM Kind 0-3 Cinababy drops is a homeopathic remedy against colics.
Composition
-----------
Per 100g: Chamomille D6 10g, Wormseed D6 10g, Colocynth D6 10g, Skimmed cow's milk D6 10g, Muriate of Magnesia D6 10g.
Excipients: water, glycerine (E422) and xylitol.
Alcohol content: 2.69% (by volume)
Dosage and Use
-------------
For children 0-3 years old:
- In the case of acute complaints 3 drops every hour, up to six times a day.
- Thereafter 3 drops three times a day.
- To be administered preferably a half hour before or after meals. Let the child keep the drops in the mouth for a moment and then swallow them.
- If you notice that the child does not react noticeably to Cinebaby drops or that he / she complains without reason, it is adviseable to seek a doctor's advice. | Remarks about the translation | I'm translating "klacht" as "complaint". Not having much experience with children, I'm not sure if this is the right word to describe a baby "complaining" about something. That's what is meant, in any case. |

Leinจำนวนข้อความ: 3389 | Hi jmf,
this looks like a good translation to me. I have set a poll to see if anyone has any other suggestions.
Two small points / suggestions from me:
Let them be held in the mouth - wouldn't "let the child hold them in the mouth" be more natural?
or that it complaints without reason - I think this is gramatically correct but I think usually you would say "he / she" when referring to a child.
Let me know what you think!

jmfจำนวนข้อความ: 5 | Yes, I agree with both suggestions; although I thought that "it" was an accepted gender-free pronoun when referring to a baby. Perhaps I'm being influenced by German/Dutch, though

That was a very fast reaction!
I just don't hear 'it' when anyone speaks about a child here but again I don't think it is wrong. Let's wait and see what the others say | | |
1 December 2009 21:26 | | | I would also translate Kind to Child (3rd line). | | |
1 December 2009 21:37 | | | Hi,
Maybe you could also consider saying "If you notice that the child does not react noticeably to Cinebaby drops or that unexpected sideaffects occur, it is adviseable to seek a doctor's advice"
instead of "If you notice that the child does not react noticeably to Cinebaby drops or that he / she complains without reason, it is adviseable to seek a doctor's advice"
This seems to be more true to the original source.
And I have one more question about this part: "Let the child hold them in the mouth and then swallowed"
Shouldn't it be something like "Let the child keep the drops in the mouth for a moment, and then swallow them."
Let me know what you think..! | | |
1 December 2009 23:04 | | | -swallow, not swallowed
-if you don't like *complaints* you might consider *symptoms* which is used by doctors and many laymen for any subjective indication for a disease, including those of children.
However, there is a trend away from 'medispeak' in information leaflets, and this trend is particularly strong in homoeopathy, therefore I think that there is nothing against *complaints* here.

jmfจำนวนข้อความ: 5 | @küçüktimsah: the name of the product is "VSM Kind 0-3 Cinebaby" (druppels), which is why I left it in the original. Is it conventional to translate proper nouns? | | |
2 December 2009 10:37 | | | Hi jmf,
Yes now I see where you're coming from.. I just figured that since you translated 'druppels' you would also translate 'kind'. But you're right, I guess you could leave it the way it is | | |

Leinจำนวนข้อความ: 3389 | No, I agree with you, jmf, that the name of the product is best left untranslated.
Thank you for your suggestions, küçüktimsah! I think I would personally stick with jmf's "if he / she complains without reason" but that is just a personal preference because it stays closer to the literal meaning of the Dutch text in my opinion.
I do like your second suggestion and think it is clearer than what we have now, although I think both are correct. Jmf, let me know what you prefer and I'll edit | | |

jmfจำนวนข้อความ: 5 | @Lein: I'm happy either way. (I take a rather prosaic view on translations, I'm afraid.)
