Text Submitted by redozz	Source language: Swedish Till en bÃ¶rjar var det bra men senare kom vi in pÃ¥ en vÃ¤g som var ojÃ¤mn och dÃ¥lig. Efter ett par mil sÃ¥ gick vÃ¥rt dÃ¤ck sÃ¶nder. Det hade slitits av en stor bit ifrÃ¥n mitten av dÃ¤cket och vi stannade fÃ¶r att byta vid vÃ¤gkanten. Vi hade tur som tog med oss reservdÃ¤cket annars hade det inte gÃ¥tt sÃ¥ bra. Men det drÃ¶jde inte lÃ¤nge tills reservdÃ¤cket gick sÃ¶nder pÃ¥ grund utav den dÃ¤liga och ojÃ¤mna vÃ¤gen. Det andra dÃ¤cket som hade gÃ¥tt sÃ¶nder sedan tidigare kunde man kÃ¶ra pÃ¥ men det var inte det bÃ¤sta.

Target language: English

At the beginning it was fine but later on we came into a road that was uneven and bad. After a distance of about 20 kilometres our tyre broke down. A big part of the middle part of the tyre had been pulled away and we stopped to change it by the verge. We had luck that brought the reserve tyre with us, otherwise it had not worked out that good. But it doesn't took long until the reserve tyre broke down due to the bad and the uneven road. The other tyre that had been broken since earlier one could drive on, but it wasn't the best.

HiWell, for example there are mistakes in "annars hade det inte gÃ¥tt sÃ¥ bra" It is now "otherwise it had not worked out that good" I think it should be like: "Otherwise it wouldn't have gone that well" "reverse tyre" is not a phrase used in England as far as I know..I think "spare tyre" is an idiomatic phrase for that.
