Review of the translation of "Ahmed Sylla"

Hi! I've looked at your translation and have a few corrections/suggestions :-)

I think you left out très tôt so maybe the sentences could be: "...and started from an early age to like theatre and comedy.

In the same sentence you use "started" twice. I think it works, but maybe it would be more elegant if you don't use the same word twice, e.g. motivated by his family, who pushed him down this road.

Enroll

dirigé: instead of met, I would use guided or directed by

an experienced teacher of theater acting techniques and interpreting of characters

People like Louis de Funès Louis de Funès, Raymond Devos and Coluche influence him a lot, but also Canadians (without 's') artists as Michel Courtemanche or Jim Carrey, whose humour basis is the efficiency of their body language. Ahmed loves that technique.

I think your translation of this is good, so this is just a suggestion to a translation, which is closer to the construction of the source text: Ahmed/he gets his inspiration from the works of Louis de Funès, Raymond Devos and Coluche. He also learns about artists from across the Atlantic such as, among others, the Canadians Michel Courtemanche or/and Jim Carrey...

first as Ahmed Sarko -maybe you could add "under the stage name" (but it also works fine as it is)

he found his feet -without 's'

une myriade de personnages tous aussi farfelus les uns que les autres. Again, your translation is good, so this is just a suggestion, which is closer to the construction of the source text: "As a myriad of persons, each of them more bizarre than the others."

I hope my suggestions are okay :) Line Line5031 (talk) 11:38, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
