Certe! Kaj, unu kialon pro tio estas ke instruisito kaj alia plunkreskuloj (krom mi) ne konas kio vi faras!
Ĉu vi estas malsana? | Remarks about the translation | I got this email from a teacher at my college as a reply to an email i sent him asking if i could write a blog in Esperanto for extra credit. |

Sure! And one reason for it is that teachers and other adults (except me) don't know what you're doing!
Are you sick? | Remarks about the translation | |

KKMDNumber of messages: 19 | I would still tend to think that the guy probably meant to say "are you insane?" rather than "are you sick?", even if the latter is technically the correct translation. | | |

Could you tell me your opinion about the translation of "malsana" in this text?
Should it be translated literally or is KKDM's suggestion suitable? CC: zciric | | |

I've only now noticed this message. 
Sorry for the late answer.
I'd accept the suggestion of KKMD.. if there is a need for the right meaning of the translated text.
"Malsana" is used when somebody is sick and usually one needs a doctor to "get health back"...
For this 'phrase situation' world "freneza"
/Ĉu vi estas freneza?/ would be better solution.
The right meaning of the word "freneza" is like "crazy" /Are you crazy?/, but same as in the English, also in Esperanto this phrase could be use with that 'other sense' meaning when one does not speak and mean about really crazy person, but the word is used only 'figuratively'.
Greetings
Zoran |
