disagree  Rosaelena5 (X): De que manera puedo decir, que la que habla de guarnición en su exposición, eres tu?.Por favor, revisa mi traducción.Yo hablo de ¨salsa¨, tu hablas de ¨cebollas¨, ¨higos¨.

  -> Comprendo tu cambio, porque realmente no estamos de acuerdo. No es una guarnición - son los ingredientes. Fijate en el link que envió Edelatorre que es justamente el producto de Trade Joe's que menciona en el texto.

agree  Rosaelena5 (X): Efectivamente se trata de una salsa. Habría que considerar la opción de escribir el nombre original con la traducción de los ingredientes.

neutral  EDelatorre: One would automatically think "vinegar" (with the balsamic in there), but everyone seems to have missed "spreads" in the original.

onion fig


Explanation:
Estuve revisando el texto con bastante cuidado y definitivamente no se puede traducir ¨onion fig¨. Se trata de una salsa: ¨Italian carmelized onion fig & balsamic¨. Existe gran variedad de recetas que incluyen cebollas e higos en sus recetas, pero en se caso se trata de una salsa tipo gourmet, no se puede cambiar nada, seria como traducir un apellido.

Incluso las páginas que presentan los colegas hablan de salsas cuando se refieren a ¨onion fig¨. Para que se refiera a guarnición, tendría que existir una coma ( en el texto original) que separe ¨onion¨ de ¨fig¨. Ojalá que en esta ocasión mi explicación sea comprensible para EDelatorre o algún otro colega que no hay entendido mi explicación anterior.

Respeto mucho la opinión de los participantes (sé que muchos no son colegas). Pero, escribiendo un disagree a mi traducción , no va a convertir ¨cebollas caramelizadas, higos¨en la traducción correcta de ¨onion fig¨. Bien, el asker tiene la palabra.

disagree  EDelatorre: If an "onion fig" were an onion used for guarnishing it would be a "fig onion", Excuse me also, I was referring to your comment under Soledad's answer. You must have deleted it.
