Romanian to English translations [PRO] Other / juridic | | Romanian term or phrase: turnip | Why, you turnip, if you had laid low and kept dark, there's chances to buy an American horse for mighty little more than you paid for that bloody old foreign relic. (Mark Twain- Roughing it!, Chapter 24)
In romana, romanul a fost tradus prin Ageamii la ei acasa. Din pacate, nu gasesc traducerea oficiala si va trebui sa traduc eu fragmentul. Ma gandeam la "cap sec" pentru "turnip", insa nu sunt sigura. |
