TRANSLATE THIS game - 06-12-2008, 06:28 AM

As some of you know I am a Jpn to Eng translator. Sometimes I come across sentences that could be translated several ways, so I thought it might be fun for those who feel they have some skills to use this thread to discuss possible translations for a sentence or phrase.

Of course, everyone can participate who is interested in English and Japanese, and questions are encouraged. It's not a "game" maybe so much as a a discussion with examples...

I came across this sentence tonight, and although it looks relatively simple, I struggled a little with an accurate translation...

農家の窓にはあたたかい灯がとまっている。
