Could one of you give me a vote or an opinion please? I only have one vote for this translation.
Thanks! CC: Belhassen jaq84 | | | 28 January 2012 14:45 | | jaq84Number of messages: 568 | I'm ok with the meaning being conveyed. But are you ok with the English sentence with respect to structure?? Can we say something like:
'I will sell the honey pot to buy a goat'.
I guess that is less wordy if you find the meaning is still the same. | | | 31 January 2012 15:18 | | LeinNumber of messages: 3389 | Done! Thank you! | | | 4 February 2012 13:02 | | | Is it "honey pot" or "honey in pot" ? | | | 6 February 2012 13:08 | | LeinNumber of messages: 3389 | If you sell the honey together with the pot, it would be 'honey pot'. Of course, if you sell only the pot, it would also be 'honey pot', so context will tell you which of the two it is (usually the first option I think )
If you sell the honey, but not the pot (eg people bring their own pot and you fill it for them) it would be 'the honey from the pot'. | | | 9 February 2012 09:38 | | | Thanks dear Lein,
I know them but we use in Turkish only ; "I will sell honey and...". Do we need to use here "the pot" or is English version not O.K ? | | | 9 February 2012 12:57 | | LeinNumber of messages: 3389 | I don't think the meaning radically changes.
I will sell the honey
I will sell the honey pot
So I will leave this as it is. | | | 9 February 2012 16:11 | | | This situation is different in Turkish. Is what is sold the honey or the honey pot?
In Turkey, when you say 'I sell honey pots', it doesn't mean that honey and pots are sold together. You would have meant that you sell just pots. Moreover, in Turkey, you say 'Today, I'll buy some honey at grocery store' even if they are sold together and you don't say 'I'll buy a honey pot at grocery store' because honey pots aren't sold there.
If what is sold is the honey, the Turkish translation ought to be edited. | | | 9 February 2012 21:28 | | | I agree w. Mesud.
And it is for me;
"I will sell enough honey for buying a goat."
I suppose English version is not right. |
