Titel
What is not learned in youth
Übersetzung
Englisch

Übersetzt von aluji
Zielsprache: Englisch

For what is not learned in youth is unknown in old age.
For nobody is known to be without faults; in great endeavors, it is also enough to have been willing.
Bemerkungen zur Übersetzung
"noscitur", as it is an inchoative verb, more closely means "is getting to be known", which does not make sense in context. Perhaps there was a transcription error which produced "noscitur" from what I assume was the original word, "nascitur", which would change the translation to "For nobody is born without faults." There was also a strange rendition of "vitiis" to "vitis", so I think the text we have here is not entirely trustworthy.

Hi aluji,
I've already changed "vitis" into "vitiis" (haven't noticed this before). Thank you.
I share your opinion that probably the original word was "nascitur" in the second sentence, but as long as "noscitur" is also accceptable and possible within the context, I left the word as it was.

Hi Lilly,
It's pretty good translation. Anyway,

in magnis et voluisse sat est.

since it is a word "et" in the sentence, I would translate:
In great endeavours/things it is ALSO enough to have been willing. (or: that we have been willing)

Aneta is right, that's a better treatment of the "et"
