ترجمه - لهستانی-انگلیسی - Ech, tak patrzÄ™ na Twoje konto. Grasz od samego...

Shouldn't it be "from the very beginning"?

Yes.. or "You play right from the beginning"...

OK, but my interpretation was that the speaker was surprised by the lack of progress of the addressee even though they started at the same time. Is that wrong?

Hey
I think that you were misled by the "sam" word. Even though "sam" may mean "the same", it's not what it means here.

It's a popular phrase which is used like that:
"od samego poczÄ…tku" - "from the very beginning"
"do samego końca" - "to the very end"
"na samym końcu" - "at the very end"
"na samej górze" - "at the very top"
etc.

Alright, I changed it. Thanks for the help.

Hi Shaneeae,

"...but the fact that you play so long and you have so little already means something."

I think that would sound better as:

"...but the fact that you have played for so long and have so little, already means something."

What do you think?

Yes, it would. But I chose not to do it that way to preserve the tense of the original.
I can change it if that's a problem.

Well...I don't know...it sounds a little wrong to me.

Sometimes we have to change the tenses in order to get a "natural" sound to the ears of the native speakers of the target language.

Alright, I've fixed it.
