27 May 2008 19:20 | | | If those are plural we have a problem here.
"both" means "two" not "many" and also the second sentence says "One of them....., the other..." which means that we are talking about two animals (one and the other).
So, something is wrong, what would it be?  | | |

"There are eagles and snakes in the caps. The first reached there soaring, the last crawling. What matters is not where you arrive... "
Does it convey the original?  |
