| every oppurtunity not taken is lost forever | | Target language: English
every missed chance is lost forever | Remarks about the translation | literalmente, in inglese, questa frase e' "everything left is lost", ma significa che si deve prendere la palla al balzo (di solito con le cose romantiche o sessuale). In inglese', c'e' una frase piu' idiomatica "oppurtunity knocks but once" ma non e' molto diffuso. Anche c'e' "strike while the iron is hot" che significa si deve agire al momento ottimale. |
