Hello, I have noticed an interesting signature line on scrimshaw's posts I will try to translate it here: Jsem zvědav, jak by to vypadalo, kdybych byl přivolávačem deště. Jak by to vypadalo, kdybych uměl přivolat déšt'? Mám pocit ale, že se to bohužel nikdy nedozvím. I am curious to know how would it feel like to be a rain maker. How would it feel like to summon the rain. However, I have a feeling that I will never find out, unfortunately. Is my translation all right? By the way, this sounds like a line from a song or a poem. Is it? -Rene
I am sure scrimshaw will help you with this . Btw. meanwhile you can try his old signature: Chtěl bych vědět, kdo je u kormidla této potápějící se lodi. Na druhou stranu bych to raději nevěděl. (sorry David if it is not 100% accurate).
I had to look up a couple of words. Here's my translation: I'd like to know who is at the helm of this diving boat. On the other hand, I'd rather not know
Alexxi, you have a great memory, that was it exactly. And Rene, you are right, that signature comes from a song by 'Matchbox 20', Rainmaker. I wonder what it would be like to be a rainmaker. What would it be like if I could make it(summon) rain. But I have the felling that I will never know. Here's another line. Jsem zvědav, jak by to vypadalo, kdybych byl superhrdinou. Jak by to bylo, kdybych uměl letět centrumem. Z další planety bych dostal zvláštní sílu z její žlutého slunce. Pane, vsadím se, že tím, všichni moje přátelé by byli omráčeni, ano, jsou omráčeni.
Okay. A few words I didn't understand, so I had to look them up. Here's the result: I wonder what it would be like, if I were a superhero. What it would be like, if I could fly to the center (downtown) I'd get a special strength from the yellow sun of other planets. Lord, I bet all my friends would be stunned (from it), yes they would be stunned. Hey, translating songs it's kind of fun. Thanks for the opportunity! -Rene z Floridy
Yes, Rene, that's it Although, remember, I am not sure about my czech grammar. Don't let me steer you wrong. Já také jsem jen žák.
