This is an idiomatic expression, I don't think it can be translated literaly. Please wait for other members, they'll compose something good, acurate and breve.
This one took a bit of head-scratching. Res tempore tantum nititur = the matter depends only on time.
You have unnecessarily confused matters by saying one thing in the title and something different in the body. You also failed to actually write a request, so you are lucky anyone replied at all. Furthermore, ‘the time always solve the problems’ is gibberish. Perhaps you mean to say el tiempo siempre resuelve los problemas, or something like that. What is ‘a matter of time’ supposed to refer to? It usually means something like ‘it (whatever good or bad thing we are discussing) will inevitably happen, so we just need to wait (and then we can either enjoy or cope with the outcome)’.
I´m only trying to follow the rules: In the Body: One phrase per post, whenever possible. Description of what this phrase means to you. I'm sorry if the request it´s confussed. A matter of time = Una cuestión de tiempo
Yes, and Cinefactus is pointing out that this is not what the instruction was asking you to do. ‘One phrase per post’ is intended to mean ‘one translation request per post’. Actually, it’s not even per post. It’s per thread.
I´m trying to delete the Explain post but I can't. But I'm only trying to follow the rules... In the Title: ONLY the phrase you would like translated WITHOUT quotation marks. No non-descriptive titles, e.g., "Please Help", or "Assistance Needed" In the Body: One phrase per post, whenever possible. Description of what this phrase means to you.
Anyway, so you want ‘a matter of time’ in the sense of ‘time solves all problems’. Something like tempus omnia sanat should suffice.
That’s the old instructions. Are they still visible somewhere? It is currently rephrased as: I’m pretty sure even the old instructions said to elaborate on the meaning and purpose of the phrase.
Yeah, that's the point, thanks. And yes, the old instructions is the first thing I see in this topic every time I get in. Thanks again
In every thread I see the same. And in the main http://latindiscussion.com/forum/forums/english-to-latin-translation.2/ too
Aha, I’ve just created a new account in order to find out what on earth you are talking about. Yes, it seems that newbies are exposed to a huge banner across the top of every page, between the main banner and the actual content. I suspect Nikolaos will need to fix this. Torres, that is just a summary of the rules. The full rules are linked to in that summary.
