Ayuda! Help with technical language :P thanks!

Question

Hola a todos!

Tengo que traducir algo y necesito ayuda profesional

It has to be plural and formal.

To say brand new is completamente nuevo? as in Brand new book.

1. Libro completamente nuevo o libro salido de fábrica (sounds odd)

2. Por favor déjanos 2 semanas para enviarlos = please allow 2 weeks for shipping (of books)

3. Envia de Irlanda = Ships from Ireland

4. Este es un libro imprimir a petición = this is a print on demand book

I thought that ships was a very old fashioned way to put "the sending of something" or the delivery... but anyway, maybe it is correct.

Thanks so much!

The ships are ok, I'm sure of that. The rest, well, beyond me. Libro reciente? Nuevo is probably fine. The dos semanas make good sense to me. I dare not make an official answer. . - annierats, Oct 8, 2011

Oh, I was actually trying to get the translation into Spanish, not into English.. but thank you! - dewclaw, Oct 8, 2011

Answer 1

1. Libro Nuevo or simply Libro: Nuevo, is enough. No need to emphasize the "shiny, brand spanking, smell the ink" new aspect in Spanish.
2. Por favor permita 2 semanas para el envío.
3. Sale de Irlanda / Se envía desde Irlanda
4. Este libro se imprime a petición / este es un libro impreso a petición.

thanks Gekkosan. The technical stuff isn't so easy. It's admirable when how you can do it so easily :P - dewclaw, Oct 8, 2011

Answer 2

Just a couple of things, if needs to be formal you can not use..."dejanos" because you are using the conjugation of "tu" I think gekkosan translation is accurate

thanks so much. - dewclaw, Oct 8, 2011

Answer 3

flamante means brand new amongs other things

This is correct, but it is not commonly used in online catalogs. - Gekkosan, Oct 8, 2011
