Yes, I really apologize for such beginner's mistake.
I really have problems with english when I am too busy and when I have
to write fast. I apologize it really.
I looked at the definition of "traduce" and it is interesting to learn
that many meanings are now obsolete. English people may now give to
"traduce" the mean of an italian proverb " Traduttore mentore " (the
translator is a lyar)...
