Ek kan nie ´n perfekte man wees nie, maar ek is seker dat ek die beste man van jou lewe is. As ek jou seer maak, vergewe my! As jy my seermaak, voel vergewe. Vandag, ja, lyk ons lewe soos 'n bladsy van 'n glanstydskrif, want ek hou van jou. | Bemerkungen zur Übersetzung | I am not sure what is meant by "sees one paginates of newspaper for the world"
My guess is "looks like an international newspaper page" or something similar. I have edited as if it were "like a page of a glossy paper", for I think that that association comes more easily to a Western c.q. South-African public. If you prefer the international newspaper thing, change *glanstydskrif* into *internationale koerant* (gbernsdorff)

1. wrong place of *wees*
2. In this sentence *man* is a male of the human species. Afrikaans: man, not mens. [why did you translate it by *mens* first, by *man* later ?]
-> Ek kan nie 'n perfekte man wees nie,
3. *ek is seker dat* (no comma)
4. seermaak (delete *te*)
[why did you not change that in the second sentence, you did it in the third one]
5. *vergewen voel* = wrong word order, -> voel vergewe
[in imperatives the verb is always first]
6. *vandag (,ja,) jou lewe sien* is a wrong word order; if the clause begins with an adverb, inversion of subject and verb takes place
7. our = ons
-> vandag, ja, sien ons lewe
NB I am not sure what is meant by "sees one paginates of newspaper for the world "
I suggest "our lives look like an international newspaper page" or something similar, but we can ask the community's opinion as soon as the rest of your translation is OK.
Regards,
Guido

5 November 2009 18:26 | | | Hi All,
I'd like your opinion on (part of) the English source text. "sees one paginates of newspaper for the world" doesn't make much sense to me. Am I right in suggesting to kathyaigner that it means something like "our lives look like an international newspaper page", or do any of you come with a better interpretation?
Thanks for your help!
