As a "meaning only" it might pass, but not as a translation.

Hi,

What's the matter with it Jim? As it is a meaning only request, if there is no major problem I'll validate it.

Vänligen
Ruth

I know danish, not everything but enough to translate and talk and understand and get understood in Denmark.

But since there were no comma in the danish I didn't thought it was necessary... as for the others ofcourse you right.

Är du svensk Ruth??

ha d gott!

I am Swedish but have lived in Norway with a Dane, for years, SAS (you know).
Out of my point of view your translation passes as a "meaning only". Your translation do not have the rough style that would have been necessary for a proper translation.

SAS what??

ok, whatever i'm not a pro, did you study translation or something...like:
Översättning 15hp
delkurs 1- översätt texter i skönlitteratur 6hp
delkurs 2- översätta ordspråk o uttryck 4,5hp
osv... eller?

Scandinavian Airlines System = SAS

Jag är så gammal så kurserna såg annorlunda ut då, dessutom så fick jag göra dem under min militärtjänst. Enorma mängder terminologi. Jag har utökat till medicinsk terminologi numer. Nu har jag skadat ryggen så jag sitter med laptopen hemma och ser på TV och tränar latin.

Hi Mattan, Hi Porfhyr,

Since the request was "meaning only" this translation will do very nicely.

In any case, Mattan, here on Cucumis we are not pros. We are mostly amateurs doing translations because we enjoy it. There are very few pros here so do feel at home with us.

What do you mean by "rough" Porfhyr? Do you mean that Mattan translated more politely than the original?

Hi Tantine...

Yes she did.
Let's take the word "fedt" in Danish (=fat in exact english translation), that should have been translated as 'groovy', while it was translated as 'cool' for which there is a Danish word "kul".

Just a little example... to show what I meant.

It is "computer-translated". The word possitioning is not correct.

Hi All

Astrid - I find the word order perfectly ok, it looks far from having been translated by a machine. The word "positionning" take one "s" by the way. I hope you understand that it is the ENGLISH I am asking you to evaluate and not the Danish.

Porfhyr - The word "groovy" is no longer used in English it went out of date a long while back. Since in current English the word "cool" is the usual word, and this is a "meaning only" translation, it's more than adequate.

Carbonx I don't understand why you have posted (almost) the original text to be translated. I think there is the same problem here as for Astrid.

This is a translation FROM Danish INTO English. I don't really need to know if the Danish is correctly written. I just need to know if the English is a correct representation of the Danish original.

Hi Mattan

In general to have a really good translation done, here on cucumis, you ask for it to be done by an Expert.

The translation that you did here was a "meaning only" request so, as long as the traslation conveys the general idea expressed in the orginal, it an be accepted.

In order to be chosen as an Expert you need to have an average above 7 in your rating for the Expert language. But you don't need to be a pro to become an Expert, you just need to be good at translating.

Maybe you will become an Expert yourself

I have often heared the expression "Det er så fedt" in Danish. And it meant "it's so cool", because I actually asked Danes about it. My husbands says that both "fedt" and "kul" are used. He is actually the Danish speaker in our family, so I suppose it must be some truth in what he says.

Obviously a matter of taste then. In Norway it is only street boys from Pakistan who says it.

"groovy"? People stopped using that word in the early 70s, Porfyhr. Maybe the modern-day equivalent would be "phat", although they tell me that that one is getting old already too!

"cool" is the only slang word of this type that seems to have survived the generations ...

Kafetzou...
We are getting old now, the 70's are back... in Sweden and Norway teenagers talk about "groovy" things, but it could also be an isolated trend.

"Cool" is called "Cool" in Sweden but "Kul" (=Fun) in Norway. It can be quite funny. A Swede say "That would be really cool." and the Norwegian replies "Ja mye kul" (Yes very fun, [like a carousel ride]).
But groovy works esp among boys with their jeans waist where their knees starts.

By the way, because you were so reserved about using "fedt" as "cool" in Danish language, look here: http://www.ebblog.dk/1048/perma/14448/ It's a link given by Extrabladet (which I reckon being the best news paper in Denmark) and that expresion is more than used there. I have heard it also on TV, several times. It's a difference between Norvegian and Danish, even thou not very big.

It's true that some old slang is getting recycled, but I've never heard a young person use "groovy" (since I was young!), except very sarcastically.
