| | I've never heard this expression before, Handyy - it seems like something's missing, as in "Don't become the apple that spoils the whole bunch", or "Don't become the apple of your father's eye".
botan, gibt es vielleicht noch ein bißchen? So wie es steht, gibt es keinen Sinn. CC: handyy |

| | Pardon - jetzt sehe ich das, was unter der Ãœbersetzung steht.
handyy, it says under the translation that it comes from the expression "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" - that one means that the children usually follow in their parents' footsteps. I'm not sure why someone would advise someone else NOT to do this, but that seems to be what's happening here. CC: handyy |

| | There's something I don't understand here. botan, if English isn't one of your languages (according to your profile), how did you write the note under this translation request? |

| | Thank you sooooo much Kafetzou. this's the first time that ı've ever heard about this proverb - it must be something like "armut dibine düşer" or sth else like that, ı guess.
then, it is mistranslated..
merdogan could you edit it please, otherwise ı am gonna reject it!
btw, thanks a lot again kafetzou |

| | handyy, you didn't reject the translation. |
| | 22 Marzec 2008 19:36 |
| | kafetzou, ı am waiting for him to enter the site and edit it. -- supposing that he confused "the apple" with "apple polisher".
after entering, if he still didn't change it, then ı would reject it.. |

| | merdogan, it says DON'T be the apple. |
| | 26 Kwiecień 2008 22:17 |
| | ok .I will not.
but we are using " a pear" instate of "an apple". |
| | 27 Kwiecień 2008 00:59 |
| | What happened to your pear? Why did you change it to an apple? |
| | 27 Kwiecień 2008 09:57 |
| | I ate it. |
