En effet, je n'ai pas traduit : "Es algo raro de explicar" (it's quite hard to explain). donc il faudrait annuler cette traduction des traductions effectuées, merci.

Francky I'm too tired to think straight in French so excuse me if I go for English. I can't change the rating right now. Do you want to edit your translation? I can do it for you too. If I understood correctly it's just needs an addition (the it's quite hard to explain) which I missed reading too so no problem

Concerning "pleasant faith" do you mean the adjective is not used correctly or you just don't like the expression in general? I am new to cucumis but as far as I understand translation, you have to try and preserve the way a sentence sounds in addition to correctly translating its meaning and If I use anything that sounds better in English I will have altered the way this particular phrase sounds in Bulgarian. And it sounds awkward in Bulgarian I can tell you!
All criticism is welcome! Sorry for overirritability!

hi there tempest

Never mind the over-irritability. It's just me nit-picking as usual.

Now, about faith

"You will have to learn to be diplomatic. This is a pleasant faith because you are unconsciously able to make the others feel calmer."

Now being diplomatic would never been called a faith in English. A concept maybe, a dogma perhaps but not faith. Now, in tranlating, we remain as close to the original as possible but not if it means writing a wrong expression in the target language. Imagine translating the "it rains cats and dogs" in Bulgarian for instance

Since I only know how to say zdavei (?) and nazdrave (?) in Bulgarian, I don't know if you can really change it.

A good solution in these cases is to do one of the following
a) use the proper English expression and write the verbatim translation in the notes
b) "Cheat". In other words, put the word faith in brackets It's an accepted cheat even in official translations.

Hope I helped a bit, sorry if I sound overbearing

Cheers
Irene

Franky you don't understand: I am not saying if "slag" should be accepted as a translation in cucumis. I am offering it as an alternative to you, regardless of the cucumis translation.

See here also for a definition http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=slag

The word "tart" by itself is equally valid but we often put stupid in front of it. It's also less ambiguous this way as tart can also mean cake or flan. The word "slag" is much more offensive.

Look, call it Modern Macedonian then. I still don't like it since even the word "Macedonian" is Greek but at least this way you will make the proper separation between ancient Macedonian and modern Macedonian.

FYROM stands for Former Yukoslavian Republic of Macedonia Go here http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/FYROM to find some info.

Γεια σου Ειρήνη

Δεν μου λες - δεν λέτε "καλές γιορτές"? Σκεθτόμουνα να γράψω "Καλά χριστούγεννα και καλή πρωτοχρονιά", αλλά διάλεξα να γράψω το πιο απλό - έκανα λάθως;

Κοίτα, σε γενικές γραμμές έχεις δίκιο. Αν όμως η κατά λέξη μετάφραση στέκει μια χαρά, προτιμώ αυτή ακόμα κι αν δεν είναι η πιο δόκιμη.

Α, μόλις έγινα κακιά και απέρριψα μια μετάφρασή σου (εκτός των άλλων δεν είχε κεφαλαία, και είχε και ένα "πσυχή" χεχε. Δεν ήταν αυτός ο λόγος απόρριψης όμως!)

Να σου πω, αυτό το Δεχ(ομαι) σε μια από τις μεταφράσεις σου (http://www.cucumis.org/translation_1_t/view-the-translation_v_41574.html) δεν το καταλαβαίνω. Αν λείπει το ρήμα, γιατί δεν έβαλες όλο το "δέχομαι" σε παρένθεση; Αφού στα ελληνικά το "δεχ" αποκλείεται να εμφανιστεί μόνο του.

Έγραψες αυτό (όμως τό'βαλες στο δικό σου γραμματοκιβώτιο):

"Κοίτα, σε γενικές γραμμές έχεις δίκιο. Αν όμως η κατά λέξη μετάφραση στέκει μια χαρά, προτιμώ αυτή ακόμα κι αν δεν είναι η πιο δόκιμη."

Συμφωνώ.

"Α, μόλις έγινα κακιά και απέρριψα μια μετάφρασή σου (εκτός των άλλων δεν είχε κεφαλαία, και είχε και ένα "πσυχή" χεχε. Δεν ήταν αυτός ο λόγος απόρριψης όμως!) "

Oops! Thanks.

"Να σου πω, αυτό το Δεχ(ομαι) σε μια από τις μεταφράσεις σου (http://www.cucumis.org/translation_1_t/view-the-translation_v_41574.html) δεν το καταλαβαίνω. Αν λείπει το ρήμα, γιατί δεν έβαλες όλο το "δέχομαι" σε παρένθεση; Αφού στα ελληνικά το "δεχ" αποκλείεται να εμφανιστεί μόνο του."

Να σου εξηγήσω, but I'd better do it in English:

The Turkish verb "to accept" is "kabul etmek". The "kabul" part was there, but the "etmek" part wasn't, so we don't know the person or the tense. Obviously the translation had been cut off, as is often the case on this site. That's why I translated it as Δεχ(ομαι).

Για το "Γειά σου θησαυρέ μου":

Πω πω έκανα πολλά λάθη - αμάν! Έμαθα πολύ όμως από τη δική σου μετάφραση - ευχαριστώ πολύ!

P.S. The reason for γλυκειά μου instead of θησαυρέ μου was that I was translating from the Turkish - I can't read Dutch.

Hi there

No, albanian is a totally different language. What Xristos meant is that the language is wrong. The original is not in Albanian, it is in Greek but it is written in Latin characters.

venerable Irini, what verb is used in Greek for the Dutch "missen"? παραξενεύομαι? νοσταλγώ?
