Question

What would be the best way of saying...

The body was pesented to the county morgue

Please help...

Answer 1

I would say " El cadaver/cuerpo (I think cadaver sounds better) fue llevado/entregado a la morgue del condado"

Answer 2

I can't resist making this change:

deposito -> depósito

Answer 3

After removing the mistakes:

Fue entregado el cadáver al deposito de cadáveres del condado, envuelto en una sábana blanca y cuerpo negro, mezclado con una cantidad grande de restos mezclados con tejidos y huesos desarticulados de la parte superior del torso aparte de la ordenanza.

Answer 4

*morgue.
(Del fr. morgue).
1. f. depósito de cadáveres.

The DRAE included this word in 1984, adding that this French term is used in America because it is used in USA.

In Spain it is unknown... unless your English is good.

Answer 5

Fue entregado el cadaver al deposito de cadaveres del condado envuelto en una sabana blanca y cuerpo negro mesclado con una cantidad grande de restos mesclados con tejidos y huesos desarticulados de la parte superior del torso aparte de la ordenanza.

I need help translating this paragraph.

Answer 10

Morgue does seem to be used in Latin America, but at any rate what you wrote should be "depósito de cadáveres."

Answer 11

do you believe that morgue is the correct term or depositvo de cadaveres'
