Translation text, cont.

By Diogenes ( articles ) | Jun 14, 2004

The trouble with the first CWN translation test (below) is that it went from English to Latin: something that a contemporary liturgical translator would never do. Let's try again, going from Latin to English, and using the techniques with which post-conciliar translators have made us familiar.

Comments on my efforts, or alternative translations, are welcome.

1. Cogito, ergo sum
2. Vox populi, vox Dei
3. Si vis pacem, para bellum
4. Quod semper, quod ubique, quod ab omnibus

1. My ideas define my conception of existence
2. We are Church
3. Support the nuclear freeze
4. [No translation.] Where this phrase appears in the original, it is simply to be ignored.
