Is this good translation?
Is this a good translation? (Part of children's version of David and Goliath)
Narrator: Mire a las filisteos. ¡Ellos regresan; ellos tratarán de tomarnos esclavizamos como! ¿Quién luchará su gigante? David: ¡Hago! Saul: Usted no puede. Usted es demasiado pequeño. El es casi ocho pies altos. Usted será matado. David: Siempre que tenga a Dios, yo lo puedo encarar. La escena 2 David: ¡Tomaré cinco piedras de la corriente y los mantendré en mi honda! La escena 3 Goliat: ¿Quién me luchará? ¿Quién me se enfrentará a, el Goliat poderoso? Goliat: ¿Bromea usted? ¿Seguramente usted no sabe ni piensa que él me puede derrotar? |

Is this a translation made with an automatic translator or any similar tool? It sounds like one. Please, please, don't trust translation programs, at least in this area, no machine can do the work only humans are really able to perform. No Spanish speaker would ever say something like "Usted será matado", phrases like that sound so artificial that the final translation seem like a bad joke, more than a serious job. |

I know, Exx. The problem is that many people post this kind of translations in the hope other translators polish them. What they don't seem to know is that frequently correcting such translations is harder than making them again from the scratch.
Por cierto, excelente firma la tuya. Le voy a decir a mi esposa que así es como debía ser nuestra relación, y no como es en este momento, justo al revés. Last edited by CarlosRoberto : 04-14-2008 at 12:41 PM. |

Hola, Mer:
Exx. nos tiene cautivados a todos con sus firmas!!! ya tienen un thread sólo para ellas porque es IMPOSIBLE que pasen desapercibidas! Y me imagino que más de uno incluso estará esperando a ver con qué nos sorprenderá Exx la próxima vez. Personalmente, soy uno de ellos. ¡Saludos! |

No, Exx, tienes razón, eso que dije no es totalmente cierto. La verdad es que en mi casa yo soy quien siempre tiene la última palabra: "Sí, mi amor". Last edited by CarlosRoberto : 04-14-2008 at 03:45 PM. |
