ترجمه - ترکی-انگلیسی - "yalnızlık. her kimliÄŸe doÄŸuÅŸtan yazılı tek...

I cried each time I heard the voice...> I cried always when I heard it.

Again, this doesn't change the meaning at all! But the wording is better the way Çevirmen put it so I'll leave it. We don't need the literal translation per word, we need a translation that captures the correct meaning of the original.

Can be but "the voice" is not in original.
AGAIN, as I know we can't add new words.

I am a native reader and you don't bleive me.
Can I ask why ?
and Why do you have a prejudice against me?

I believe you know what the original says; where I don't agree with you is that every word in the original must have a corresponding word in the translation. We can't add new words when that changes the meaning of the text. That is not the case here.

The reason why I start getting a bit exasperated with your comments sometimes is that you keep 'correcting' translations by changing words without changing the meaning of the text. Often, there are more ways than one to say something while keeping the same meaning.
An example:

My friend was here. My friend said something. I heard what he said.

My friend was here. He said something. I heard what he said.

My friend was here. He said something. I heard him.

My friend was here. He said something. I heard it.

All these sentences have the same meaning. If the top one is the most literal translation, please don't try to 'correct' the fourth one if someone has used it, because the meaning is the same!
I hope you see what I am trying to say...

Not a lot of votes... Could you look at this when you have some time please, Bilge? Thank you

Hi Lein,

I think it is not so easy but I'll try to do my best. The third sentence should be something like this:

-If I heard, certainly a voice said words that become some kind of formality as/when they are said (many times)

And the others:

- When I cried the hardest, I heard it. => I heard it many times while crying. ( or when I cry)

-He said "you asked" => He said "It has been asked "

-cruelty would end if nobody persecuted anyone, including those who have been wronged => Cruelty will end/ends when nobody persecute anyone (anymore)

- God said "but do not do that, it is still a CHILD => I think here we should use he instead of it. So: He's still a child.


Ask me if you have some questions.

Thank you!

Hi Çevirmen

Do you agree with Bilge's comments? If you are happy with them I'll edit and accept. If you don't agree, please let me know
Thanks!

No reply from Çevirmen

I have edited except the line about cruelty. Do you mean the second part ('including those who have been wronged') should be deleted?
Thanks again

Hi Lein,

No, it shouldn't be deleted, I just forgot to write this part of the sentence after correcting the first part. Your corrections are good. I think the translation is OK now.

You are welcome
