La traduzione, come metodo di esercizio nell’apprendimento di una lingua, farà sicuramente parte della vecchia scuola, però, inserita in un contesto più vario di apprendimento, soprattutto con feedback in tempo reale, può sempre essere un utile esercizio di allenamento.
Consiglio una partecipazione attiva e visibile postando la tua versione tra i commenti in fondo a questa pagina. In questo modo riceverai un mio commento o suggerimento in tempo più o meno reale. Ma per chi non se la sente, si può semplicemente annotare la propria versione e controllarla attraverso i miei commenti lasciati per gli altri.
Ricorda l’importanza di immaginare un contesto reale nel quale la frase in questione avrebbe senso, prima di procedere con la traduzione.
Per chi è già ben avviato al livello intermediate (B1/B2)
Ecco la nuova frase:
A quanti di questi bambini pensi di poter badare stamattina? Se ti serve una mano, puoi chiedere a Lucy, non ha niente di meglio da fare oggi.
Buon divertimento!

How many children do you think you’ll be able to look after this morning?
If you need support you can ask Lucy, she has nothing better to do today
Very good, Luca.
Perhaps “any help” would be a bit more typical than “support” in normal circumstances 😀
I had the doubt but, since my job is as a technical support, I preferred support then help 🙂
Hi, my attempt:
How many of these children do you think you are able to look after this morning? If you need some help, you can ask Lucy, she has nothing better to do today.
Very good. In the first part I think “can” would be sufficient. In the second part “any” would be more natural than “some”. 😀
How many of these children do you think you can look after this morning? If you need a hand, you can ask Lucy she is got nothing better to do today
Hi prof,
“How many of these children do you think you Will be able to look After This morning? If you Need help(a hand),you can ask Lucy.She has nothing Better to do this today.”

Well, after removing “this”, what remains is spot on. Well done, Roby! 🙂
Merci 🙏😊
Avec plaisir 😉

How many of these kids do you reckon you can look after this morning? If you need a hand, you can ask Lucy—she hasn’t got anything better to do today.
Very good, Paolo. The last part is one of those cases where the more emphatic form would be more typical.
🙂

That’s the one. 🙂
Ciao!

Hi Davide, you’re nearly always the first off the mark!
Right: you’ve got a singular where you need a plural and too many prepositions in the first part.
Also, just for the record, Lucy is a lady 😉
Aren’t you going to send me an updated version? 😉
Sure…
