29 April 2007 09:20 | | | The translation seems quite good, ma some things do not sound really English to me. Am I wrong?
Since the translation is long (and I think it was long to translate for Turkishmiss), if there are just some corrections to do, please do not reject the text. I will try to improve it.
| | |
29 April 2007 09:28 | | | kafetzou will tell us, as my English isn't better than turkishmiss's or yours. I can see a few things to edit and I edited a few words, but that's all I can do at the moment. I would use "to book" instead of "to reserv", I'd say "thanks for having choosen" instead of "thank you to have choosen", yes, the translation I would have done would be different, but it doesn't mean it would be better than the turkishmiss's one...when I saw this translation when it was still to be done, I told to myself "OOOOH, I'm going to make a lot of mistakes in it" so I didn't do it... | | |
29 April 2007 09:32 | | | But I agree with you about turkishmiss's work, the translation just needs to be edited for some details, but it sure has got to be edited then validated at turkishmiss's credit, according to the amount of work she did, and not refused, that would be unfair... | | |
29 April 2007 11:13 | | | Hm actually I think there's more than a "few" mistakes, but Kafetzou has the last word  | | |
29 April 2007 20:39 | | | Maski > Yes, we'll wait for Kafetzou's opinion.
And I've "spoken" with Turkishmiss. She would understand if Kafetzou rejects the translation because of too many mistakes. | | |
30 April 2007 09:07 | | | Hi guys,
I have edited the translation to a "more English" feel. I cannot imagine any English speaker calling their "prospectus" a "junk mail"...
I need to ask about the meaning of "NOM ET ADRESSE DU PROPRIETAIRE"
Does "PROPRIETAIRE" refer to the owner of the credit/debit card? Or does it refer to the merchant? Some dictionary gave the english equivalence as "proprietor", some as "owner"...
"Sans accès aux sanitaires maximum 24h": Does it refer to no access to the toilets/bathroom? Or does it refer to no access to medical attention?
We don't usually use "Rendezvous" in official correspondence. Could anyone explain "Rendez-vous sur notre site web", so that I can think of a corresponding English phrase? Thanks. | | |
30 April 2007 06:58 | | | Hello, samanthalee!
- "NOM ET ADRESSE DU PROPRIETAIRE" refers to the credit card owner
- "Sans accès aux sanitaires maximum 24h" refers to the access to toilets/bathroom
- "Rendez-vous"is used in English more for a date (an affair) than here where it is meant "let's meet on our website" "rendez-vous" is the imperative form of the verb "se rendre à ..", which is translatable by "to get to..."(for instance "to get to a meeting...", or "to go to...", or again, "to move to"
Hope this last explanation is clear enough to you | | |
30 April 2007 07:59 | | | turkishmiss, this is very kind to do this translation, but for this kind of request, it's really important an actual fluent/native speaker do it. You understand it's very hard for us to reject a hard work like this because you did your best, but next time, no mercy
I don't know what is the opinion of Kafetzou about it ... | | |
30 April 2007 08:20 | | | turkishmiss, your attempt is really not too bad. I could understand all of it except one or two ambiguity. Thanks for taking the time. | | |
30 April 2007 09:04 | | | Thanks Francky, in that case, the word "sanitary" has been rightly used.
Thanks for explaning about "rendezvous". It does take on a "clandestine" nature in English, although funny enough we have a rather grand hotel here called Hotel Rendezvous.
However, I still don't quite understand what is meant by "Let's meet on our website". Witchy, what was that bit supposed to mean in French? | | |
30 April 2007 12:30 | | | Francky has explained everything in the right way.
"Rendez-vous sur notre site web" means "for more informations, visit our website", so I think it could be translated by "Let's visit our website" or something more English.
Thank you so much Samanthalee.
I've changed "pedestrian" in "backpackers". | | |
1 May 2007 21:45 | | | Nice translation - I have made a few edits - campground is the whole facility; campsite is one unit on the facility, and a few other things.
I just have problems with one phrase: "after deduction of your remittance of €, you will have to pay €. " This makes no sense in English. The original was "déduction faite de votre versement de €, il vous restera € à régler." What does this mean? | | |
1 May 2007 22:28 | | | turkishmiss answered my question by sending me a message to my in-box. I think I have now solved the problem, so I have validated the translation. | | |
2 May 2007 23:17 | | | Thanks Kafetzou.
Just one more question. Maybe I'm wrong but "If a stay at our campground appeals to you" sounds strange to me. | | |
3 May 2007 00:43 | | | | | |
3 May 2007 22:07 | | | Thank you for your help, everyone!!! |
