the odds against chance are still beyond coincidence, at 10 to 1. احتمال/فرصة تكرارها لا تزال قائمة بنسبة 10 إلى1 Explanation: With some little meditation and a deeper look into context , you will understand the play on words The sentence has more than one idiomatic part which is expressed with some modification in its structure "odds" is an idiomatic expression which means "what is expected" "beyond coincidence" means that it can most likely happen and it is not a rare thing .. so the translation can be احتمال/فرصة تكرارها لا تزال قائمة بنسبة 10 إلى1 Reference: http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=14797&dict=CA...

the odds against chance are still beyond coincidence, at 10 to 1. أرجحية أن تكون هذه مجرد صدفة ضعيفة جداً Explanation: The meaning is that the possibility of this being a mere coincidence is very slim. I think it is as simple as that. |
