Drikkeri er et stort problem i England, hvor mange mennesker er uden arbejde. Det er et alvorligt problem for dem, der drikker, men også for deres familier.

Title
Close the pubs.
Translation
Engels

Translated by casper tavernello
Target language: Engels

Drinking is a huge problem in England, where many people are unemployed. This is a serious problem, not only for the alcoholics themselves, but also for their families.
Remarks about the translation
I used the word 'alcoholism' intead of beverage, drink

I made a few changes, Casper - please check it to make sure it is still correct. Also, how about "drinking" instead of "alcoholism"?

OK. Drinking is much better.
I think that 'alvorligt' is more serious than 'serious', but this is applicable too.
I was going to translate 'unemployed' but I was trying to be faithful to the danish text:
er-is/are
uden-without
arbejde-work.

Hmm. "are without work" is possible, but it just doesn't sound like English, and "don't have jobs" sounds like it's a temporary situation. I think "are unemployed" is the best solution still.
