Übersetzung - Schwedisch-Englisch - bristen pÃ¥ lärare ökar därför stadigt och börjar...

Hi Pia,

"The lack of teachers increases therefore steady and begin to be acute."

Could something be out of place here?
Do you mean:
"The lack of teachers increases steadly, therefore it (the problem) is turning acute/severe."

Sorry if I misunderstood the source, but I'm just trying to make the statement in English clear.

Yes, I understand... but the meaning here is more: "the lack of teachers increases (for that reason *) steady and (the problem) is turning acute."

* The source doesn't tell what that reason is.

Do you understand my explanation?

What about:

"The increasing lack of teachers is turning steady and acute"

Sorry Lilian if I am a bit stubborn, but I think that you will change the meaning I if you write like that.

Is it possible to write something like:
"(Because of that)Therefore the lack of teachers increases steadily and is turning acute." ?

You are not stubborn, sweetie.

That last solution sounds better.
I think it might work.

Ah .. I'm glad.
Thanks a lot for your patience dear "boss"!
I'll edit now.

The grammar is a bit off.
Suggest the following:
"The lack of teachers increases steadily and starts to be acute."

Regards,
