Challenge number 3, My Wolf
I love Catherine’s ‘bain marie and tartines from the original French, and the flour rolling and the double meanings, but Roger’s version takes the cake.
Roger Slater First place
Challenge Number 2, Thank you Lord
I am full of admiration for Julie’s translation of Thank You Lord, it is so elegant and smooth, it reads as if it had been written originally in English.
Julie Steiner, First place.
Challenge Number 1 "Cielito lindo”
I will use Martin’s suggestion of split votes. Without my attempt there are four versions, I give 1/4 vote to each. I can't choose just one.
Roger Slater 1/4, Julie Steiner 1/4, Catherine Chandler 1/4, Marion Shore 1/4 of first place.
Once upon a time the Translation Bees were buzzing with contestants and eager critics from other parts of the forum. It would be nice if that happened again.
