Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
This is a quote from The Lord of the Rings I really kept. Plus, it's shortness and kindness as well as its structure highly qualify it for a translation challenge
English
“Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.”

Re: Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
Yélian
The parallelism is somewhat lost in Yélian because it uses different verbs for "to deserve sth. positive" (natuia) and for "to deserve a punishment" (acurea).

Re: Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
I don't think ansioso is a correct translation for eager. I think something along the lines of impaciente or entusiasta would work better

Re: Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
Another version in castellano
Muchos de los que viven merecen morir y algunos de los que mueren merecen la vida. ¿Puedes devolver la vida? Entonces no te apresures a dispensar la muerte, pues ni el más sabio conoce el fin de todos los caminos.

Re: Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
Recall that Spanish is a more 'verby-werby' language than English;qwed117 wrote:I don't think ansioso is a correct translation for eager. I think something along the lines of impaciente or entusiasta would work better
many English ADJ + VRB or substantival idioms often find in Spanish a more VRB-focused dancing-partner during a translational hoe-down.
Re: Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
Nombreux sont ceux qui vivent et méritent la mort. Et certains qui meurent méritent la vie. Pouvez-vous la leur donner ? Alors ne soyez pas trop prompt à dispenser la mort en jugement.
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.
Viele, die leben, verdienen den Tod. Und manche, die sterben, verdienen das Leben. Kannst du es ihnen geben? Dann sei auch nicht so rasch mit einem Todesurteil bei der Hand.
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.
人生の多くは死に値し、多くの死が生きるにふさわしい。お前はそれらを与える事ができるか?死の判決を簡単にしようとしてはいけない。
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.
I also found this:
Muchos de los que viven merecen morir y algunos de los que mueren merecen la vida ¿Puedes darles la vida? Entonces no te apresures a la hora de dispensar muerte o juicio.
For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
Pues ni el más sabio conoce el fin de todos los caminos.

This one seems to bypass the judgement piece, and jumps the gun on the next sentence:Lambuzhao wrote: Muchos de los que viven merecen morir y algunos de los que mueren merecen la vida. ¿Puedes devolver la vida? Entonces no te apresures a dispensar la muerte, pues ni el más sabio conoce el fin de todos los caminos.
For even the very wise cannot see all ends.

Re: Many that live deserve death (Gandalf quote)
SpanishDict, at least, gives "ansioso" as a valid translation of the "desirous" sense of eager, and ansioso is the first translation it lists. Maybe there's a better word to use here (both of the other translations here use apresurarse), but I don't think ansioso is an entirely incorrect translation.qwed117 wrote:I don't think ansioso is a correct translation for eager.

I'd heed Lam's comments on this one, but if you really must run willy-nilly translationese amok despite his sage advice, my softcover, hard copy desktop dictionary also offers "muy deseoso de + inf." for "eager to".GrandPiano wrote:SpanishDict, at least, gives "ansioso" as a valid translation of the "desirous" sense of eager, and ansioso is the first translation it lists.

In case you'd be wandering the official translation in order to compare, here it is :Lao Kou wrote: Nombreux sont ceux qui vivent et méritent la mort. Et certains qui meurent méritent la vie. Pouvez-vous la leur donner ? Alors ne soyez pas trop prompt à dispenser la mort en jugement.
Nombreux sont les vivants qui mériteraient la mort et les morts qui mériteraient la vie. Pouvez-vous leurs rendre, Frodon ? Alors ne soyez pas trop prompt à dispenser mort et jugement.
In Deyryck :
Sa bad'dig'sûn'lig gûmo'rôn sa lig'dig da Dig' afiwatn Nèh lig' to dig' gûmo ûfi'sri'sni kranéané
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.
