Before edition:
The fetter has been broken by being rasped with a file; but it is understood that it doesn't belong to one of the prisoners who have run away from the ship again at the same night; because it is the fetter which was rasped a long time ago.


Hi Handyy, please tell me if the edition changed in any way the original meaning, OK?

Hi Lilian,

Actually, here present tense is used in the source text, that's why I used it. I think it is a piece of story, so present simple is used there.

Hi handyy,

Since it took some time for you to answer my post, I set a poll for this translation. At the poll it got enough and only positive votes, so I thought it should be validated.
Don't you think it's accurate? If so, we can bring it back to evaluation and make the changes you think we should before setting a new poll for it.

What do you say?

OK Lilian, I understand. Sorry again for my absence.

I think it must be in present tense. Is this accurate in terms of sequence of tenses? :


"The fetter has been broken using a file; but it is understood that it doesn't belong to one of the prisoners who have run away from the ship that same night; because it is a fetter which has been/was filed long time ago."

Well if you have to use present it should be:

The fetter has been broken using a file; but it is understood that it doesn't belong to one of the prisoners who ran away from the ship that same night; because it is a fetter which was filed long time ago."
