But there were others too capable of saying similar things. This certainly was not said by Sauron

Another way to produce mistranslations is to take quote of some translated piece (here is the Russian one), and translate it back into the language of the original. Once we (me and several of my friends) have had lot of fun thus translating verses to and fro. So, I’m well pleased to present to your attention the quote below:

Quote:
You knew it very well, I deem! How can you tell me you did not know that your behavior is stupid and foolish? You knew it, and kept telling the truth to yourself, yet did not obey your own wisdom. And I did not warn you, for truly nothing was clear until now, but even if I was to warn you, you would not listen to me, but perform your foolishness even more eagerly. And now, having burn your tongue on a hot milk, you will be wary with a cold water, and will lend your ears to good advice

Correct. Compare it now with the original heh:

Quote:
You knew it very well, I deem! How can you tell me you did not know that your behavior is stupid and foolish? You knew it, and kept telling the truth to yourself, yet did not obey your own wisdom. And I did not warn you, for truly nothing was clear until now, but even if I was to warn you, you would not listen to me, but perform your foolishness even more eagerly. And now, having burn your tongue on a hot milk, you will be wary with a cold water, and will lend your ears to good advice
Quote:
'Oh yes, you had,' said Gandalf. 'You knew you were behaving wrongly and foolishly; and you told yourself so, though you did not listen. I did not tell you all this before, because it is only by musing on all that has happened that I have at last understood, even as we ride together. But if I had spoken sooner, it would not have lessened your desire, or made it easier to resist. On the contrary! No, the burned hand teaches best. After that advice about fire goes to the heart

Re: Another mistranslation

Very amusing, esp. the Russian version of &quot;the burned hand teaches best&quot;. Ok try this mangled tranlsation:

<blockquote>Quote:<hr> Do ain't something of bone-pate you tin backing she in the name of all wonder do not touch this say furrier anew as lank as you I'm with z hundred mile vis-a-vis thereof bear, not rug, headland, tippet, coupling not as unlike such unfrequented say. <hr></blockquote>

I swear, that's how it came out.

Re: Another mistranslation

Is that Morgoth talking to Hurin, condemming him to watch his family destroyed? (This is probably wrong, but I thought I'd take a stab at it).

Re: Another mistranslation

H-I wins the prize, and can ask the next question. However, I must say that X Phial has a very cool .gif, so he/she wins . . . . Greek kudos.

The original quote was Gandalf to Bilbo before entering Beorn's house (about not using the word &quot;furrier&quot; etc.), which I translated from english to Russian to Polish back to eEglish, thereby destroying all remaining meaning.

Re: Next one...

This is Legolas to Gandalf on Caradhras. But where did that translation come from? It looks like a jigsaw puzzle of the phrases.

Correct. as for a 'translation', mea culpa, I just replaced the words a bit so to mask the real quote.

Oh, okay. Here's mine. It's a direct translation from the Spanish edition where an expression has been changed (not as colorful as hot milk, I'm afraid<img src=wink.gif ALT=""> ).

Hey, I just wanted to bring this thread out of the dark. I know it's against the rules, but KayQ hasn't come back for over 2 months. And there is the One Week Rule backing me up.

<blockquote>Quote:<hr> &quot;Few now remember them, yet some still go wandering, sons of forgotten kings walking in lonliness, guarding from evil things folk that are heedless.&quot;<hr></blockquote>

Who said this, and to whom.

Is that Bilbo to Dori, trying to clarify his "piece of bacon" comment about how it feels to be carried by an eagle? The original English being, "O no! Not a bit like storks - forks, I mean"?

The punctuation came out rather strange on this one, but it's not too difficult.
