| | That is, if it won't be deleted due to doubleposting. |

| | Is it double posted, Urunghai? |
| |

| | No, I meant the original text had been cut into smaller pieces and posted by "different" users, the other three parts already have been deleted.
(Please take a quick peek at Ian's inbox for more info  ) |

| | Ah - I see. But anyway, this one should be validated so that you get the point you deserve for translating it, Urunghai. CC: IanMegill2 |

| | I've made several edits here, but I don't know what "micro-society" is. Other than that, I think it's ready to be validated. CC: IanMegill2 |

| | Form prior to final edits:
Lake Thau, the biggest lagoon in the Lion Bay, has seen the development over the course of time, of traditional, more or less intense activities. Of these activities fishing and shellfish cultivating comprise what today is called the lagoon's "little trades".
Situated between isolation and micro-society, this community has transformed itself through adaptation to the socio-economical context, thanks to a great vitality. |

| | I don't understand - did you edit it some more, or are you suggesting that I do it? |
| |
17 نوامبر 2007 11:26 |
| | No, I've finished it; should be alright now! 
I just keep the previous form of translations before I make any major editorial changes, so the translator (or anybody else) can compare them if they want, for educational or discussion purposes.

| | But I still don't know what "micro-society" is - is that an acceptable term in English someplace? If so, what does it mean? The only usage I can find on the web is when a school has their students create a "micro-society" - "where children create a microcosm of the real world inside the school house". |

| | Hmmm...Well, I was just following the text in this.
Sometimes with French-English translations; it's too easy to do them word for word...
I suppose from the context it means something between complete isolation (i.e. no society as such) and society as we generally know it, with a wide variety of people and relationships. Kind of a "halfway house" between the two?
The article here makes it sound like a "society within a society," like a kibbutz or organic commune-village, etc.
But it's not a common term in French either... 
Anyway, if you've got any better ideas, feel free to replace it! |

| | Interesting link - how about "planned community"? Also, maybe "situated" isn't right here. |
| |

| | Aha - wait - I found it: microcommunity - it's apparently a similar concept in English, with lots of possible forms.
How about this:
"Situated between isolation and micro-society" --> "Somewhere between being isolated and being a microcommunity"
It's still not elegant, though. Got a better idea? |

| | Thank you! "Microcommunity" it is! |
