Last messages | | | | | 23 October 2007 15:19 | | | Hmmm...I guess we will have to change it to:
My love I don't know what's up with the phone. I love you like crazy my darling. And don't worry. You, love, are my whole world.
And then we can mention in the Remarks under the translation that "love" is literally "life" and "darling" is literally "soul."
The problem is it just feels too unnatural to use the literal translations from the Italian in English...
Also,
what's up with the phone
means
what's wrong with the phone
i.e. what the matter is with the phone?
Or is there another meaning to it?

yeap 'what's up with the phone' means 'what's wrong with the phone'
| | | 23 October 2007 15:57 | | | Hmmm...Yeah, it's always a judgement call...
But I guess you'd usually be pretty safe if you put as-close-to-the-original-as-possible natural target language in the Translation box, and then put the literal meaning of the text in the Remarks box...?
Anyway, I'll edit the text and put it to a vote! Thanks! | | | 23 October 2007 15:55 | | | Original form of translation before editing:

pazzamente
in the notes, and then validate it... |
