Im confused about why goddess is in temple. Who was she meditating to?
I thought the temple would be the or at least one home of the Goddess of the coast.
Meditating Gods ? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> Hm, interesting idea.
Although some readers wouldn't like that ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> : "Gods need not to meditate anymore ! They are already enlightened !" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />
Ah, by the way, have you seen : The precessor, "The Goddess" is online ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> Must be even more disturbing ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
By the way, yes, I fear that many things were lost in the translation process. And, yess, I used the element of repeating as a way to stress things. Looks clumsy, but it's (like) the way I wanted it.
I don't really like translating that much, and receiving such bad reviews on a text I've translated leads me to the decision that I shouldn't put translated texts of mine online anymore - or even no more translate texts at all.
What might sind incredibly stupid and clumsy in your ears (ears of "natural born English speakers")might just be so because it is disttorted through the process of translating - a thing I haven't seriously considered yet. ( I well remember Winterfox being irritated by my use of the expression "to formulate" in a sentence, wich a very common expression in German to say that you've built a sentence ... often in a certain way ... )
On the other hand the same might happen to you if you want to translate your texts into German - which I won't see, here, I think. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
I think it would be nothing but fair if you'd try to translate your texts into German (hint to Winterfox), and then see how the people react towards it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
I'm content with my level of the English language; where others are not (again hint to Winterfox). I think my English is good - at least good enough for me, and I think the English of many others here (includuing Winterfox) must be superior to mine. I think I shall be more low-minded about that. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
