[Sca-cooks] Sent Sovi "Translation"

[JIMCHEVAL at aol.com]

In the rectangular window? Let it sit a few minutes. A PDF does appear, but 
 quite annoyingly they give you no "Wait' message. After it appears, wait a 
 little longer and when you mouse over the window you'll get all the PDF 
options  (including Save) in a bar at lower right.

But it's not intuitive,  no.


If the very first page you're getting is blank, that's a problem. But  you 
should be getting this:

That will open the window I'm referring to, which appears to just be  
hanging there, but is actually working. 

This version includes a glossary  as well, which is helpful.
 
 
 
It occurs to me that even if you can't read the old Catalan and even if you 
 distrust whichever translation you have in front of you, you might be able 
to  match the two to puzzle out any points on which you have doubts.
 
 
Otherwise, I wouldn't be too optimistic about trying to entirely translate  
even a modern Catalan version. I often read old Provencal, Anglo-Norman,  
Flemish-inflected Old French, etc without great difficulty and still find 
this  rough going. I've managed to translate most of one recipe, but there's a 
lot of  words I've had to either check in the glossary or look up in Google 
Books. One  issue is I think some of this vocabulary is very specific to 
this  document.
 
Not that it can't be done, certainly, but it's a far more arduous  
translation task than even translating the Enseignemenz, for instance.
