There are both an eagle and a snake
Translation
English

Translated by zeynep_357
Target language: English

There are both an eagle and a snake in the caps. One of them reached there soaring, the other crawling. What matters is not where you arrive...
Remarks about the translation
the last sentence is not finisdhed. but i think it was going to say: "the important thing is not whrer you arrive but how you got there."

If those are plural we have a problem here.
"both" means "two" not "many" and also the second sentence says "One of them....., the other..." which means that we are talking about two animals (one and the other).

So, something is wrong, what would it be?

I think we can reach an agreement on this, but we have to change some words.

"There are eagles and snakes in the caps. The first reached there soaring, the last crawling. What matters is not where you arrive... "

Does it convey the original?
