Thank you. I will research first to get a sense of it beforehand. I'm sure you've made the right decision regarding footnotes.Piotrek81 wrote: ↑August 14th, 2022, 12:23 pm Here's the opening chapter of a classical Polish novel in the English translation

Title: The Knights of the Cross
Duration 24:08
Link: https://archive.org/details/knightscrossork01siengoog/page/n9/mode/1up?view=theater
Author: Henryk Sienkiewicz
Translator: Samuel A. Binion
Key words: novel, Poland, war
It will probably sound confusing to an English-speaking listener. That's OK, I was confused too I had to resort to reading historical footnotes in the Polish text to understand who was fighting whom asit sounded illogical to me at first. We actually read it in school at the age of 10 or 11, but I don't remember much beyond the most famous details. Also, for some reason the translator decided to leave certain words in the text itself untranslated putting the translations into the footnotes instead. I figured reading the footnotes at the end of the relavant sentence could make them too detached, so instead I embedded the footnotes into the sentences straight after the untranslated word. Let me know how it sounds.

Should I ask a German-speaking volunteer to PL my German contribution?

Contacted Polish volunteer says yes! I am assuming it's the Sieroszewski, but I don't see it in the magic window.

Hi,
I'm new in this section, and Rapunzelina, in the short poetry section chose this random work for me, at my request. Unable to control the capturing of the mood, these two files represent capturing the mood, but providing the wrong intro, and providing the correct intro, hoping a staff member would splice them together. I apologize, realizing this is not one of the works in this section; if this is not acceptable, I will try to see what is available, here, though, impaired vision, an unfamiliarity with this section, and interest in using this work, are considerations. Where would this artist, Leonardo, be, sectionwise, by the way, and I am having trouble locating actual texts?
