| philadelphia moment Convención de Philadelphia a la europea/Versión Europea de la convención de Philadelphia Explanation: Dado el tono del párrafo y que no tiene sentido “un momento Philadelphia” (en España se interpretaría como una anuncio de queso de untar), este es mi granito de arena. |

peer agreement (net): +2| philadelphia moment see explanation Explanation: "Philadelphia moment" se refiere a la firma de la Constitución delos Estados Unidos de América. Yo le daría forma a la frase más o menos como sigue: No será un momento tan trascendental como la firma de la Constitución estadounidense en Filadelfia en 1787, pero al menos las naciones europeas se pusieron de acuerdo. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs 31 mins (2004-06-25 01:07:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I believe it\'s valid for the translator to add a little explanation when a term or expression is not likely to be understood by the reader. Not everyone (outside, and even in the US) will know that the \"Philadelphia moment\" here refers to the signing of the US Constitution. |
