Text

Source language: English Translated by apple

solve me or else I'll devour you
Remarks about the translation
Poem about the Sphinx
I would normally say : "Solve my riddle" but, since it is a poem, she probably wants to be "enigmatic"

Title
Résous-moi ou je te dévore
Translation
French

Translated by CocoT
Target language: French

Résous-moi ou je te dévore
Remarks about the translation
- "ou" is closer the original, but "sinon" works, too (and might sound a little better in French)
- "Déchiffre-moi" would also work (and even be a little closer to the original language)
