For the book I'm writing.

Question

Thank you for all your guys. How would I translate the following: "..so that secretly they won’t mean as little as they know they do."

Hola, Bienvenido al foro! Can you give us your attempt? There is a translator at the top of the page to assist you. - rac1, Jun 2, 2012

Answer 1

Roberto,

I don't understand the English meaning of "they won’t mean as little as they know they do."

Are you a native English speaker?

Si no, escriba la frase en español, por favor.

Answer 2

Thank you for your prompt response. When you ask, "...give us your attempt?" I will assume you are asking what am I attempting to translate. It is actually a entry to my book and if you need more context the phrase is as follows:

"Therefore, these people have to search for a religious structure to life so that secretly they won’t mean as little as they know they do."

Does this help?

rac means please attempt to translate it yourself, and then we will help you fix it : ) - unMica, Jun 2, 2012
