Default Lost in Translation? We are here to help...
 
WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL TSR TRANSLATION THREAD...

THIS SOCIETY IS RUN BY: Cunning Linguist and Fleece

This thread is designed specifically for your translation needs. Should you need a translation for any language, then post here! (see underneath for which languages are available for translation). Please also feel free to PM any of the members.

Please try and keep your wanted translations as short as possible, since I doubt anyone will bother translating very large chunks of text.

If anyone wants to join the translation crew, for any language (new languages welcome) please post on this thread too, as well as joining the society. I will edit the first post every now and then to update the members.

Mod edit- If you wish to be added to the list, please post in the thread and we will update the list below

Brilliant idea for a thread

Could someone please translate this for me into french?

"The adult prejudices that existed at the time found their way into the minds of young children"
Thanks

Les préjugés des parents, existant dans ce temps là, ont trouvés leur manière dans l'esprit des jeunes enfants.

I'll try if i can think of something better. it still needs some evaluating on.

Edit 1: Maybe, le sense instead of l'esprit

as for that translation that Just William wanted, my translation would be:

"Les préjugés adultes, qui existait à ce temps-là, ont trouvé leur voie dans les esprits de jeunes enfants"

but again, maybe people might think differently..
