Answer:

  1. "Is my team plowing" = Are my horses still working?
  2. "That I use to drive" = The way I used to drive them to plow the land
  3. "And hear the harness jingle" = While listening to the harness noises.
  4. "When I was man alive?" = When was I still alive?
  5. "Ay, the horses trample," = The horses continue to work hard.
  6. "The harness jingles now;" = And the harness continues to make noise
  7. "No change though you lie under" = Everything is the same, except your presence
  8. "The land you use to plow." = On the land you used to plow.

Explanation:

Firstly, it is important to highlight the meaning of paraphrasing. To paraphrase is to use a sentence and rewrite it keeping the original meaning, but using different words, as was done in the poem above.

The poem provides the conversation between a dead man and his friend, who is still alive. In the first three verses, the man wants to know what is happening in the land that he plowed, cared for and cultivated. He wants to know if everything is as he left it. The latest verses describe the friend's response, who says that everything is the same, except for the presence of the man who is now dead.

Which element does a translator make decisions about that effect the tone and pacing of a story?
Oksanka [162]

The translator is an author, a writer who does not start writing from scratch, but from a text written in a language that he has to translate into a different language, adapting it at the same time. The translator not only has to transfer the lexical and syntactic aspect, in fact, a set of words, although well constructed at the syntactic level is not enough, it is not very comprehensible and will lack that "something" that every good translator has to give to the text . The fact that a translated text must remain faithful to the meaning of the original text, without compromising the linguistic norms of the target language, is a key principle of translation, more or less shared by everyone. From this principle all the considerations of the translator and the translation techniques that he chooses are based or have to be based. The translator, as far as possible, has to try to overcome the obstacle of double translation and try to make his version as similar as possible to the original. A so-called "bridge language" is sometimes used.
