Hi bananas,
For those of you who weren't at the recent jbonunsla, we had a long translation discussion about a quote. I'll post my translation and the conference-adjusted-translation-by-committee that resulted from the discussion here. I'll post the English and Spanish translations in a separate message in case you want to try to work it out before seeing the original.
Here's what I walked in with:
li'a ro da poi se ciste le munje fi'e zo'e cu cunso gi'e culno so'i smadi
.i da poi krinu le go'i cu caisampu
.i ma'a na djuno ma le munje
Here's what came out of the discussion -- while it certainly wasn't settled definitively, it got some general agreement (with the caveat that my notes are hard to read, and that the gismu choices weren't fully settled):
li'a ro da poi ve ganzu le munje cu cunso na gi'e nai barda lo ka sesmadi
.i da poi krinu la'e di'u cu mutsce sampu
.i da zo'u ma'a na djuno le du'u le munje cu mokau
Next post: the originals

Is "mutsce" supposed to be "mutce" or something else?
