• Quote of the month

  “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”

  – Winston Churchill

  Jazykové tipy:

  Odpovědi na úkolům a překlad citátu najdete níže.

  1. Zkuste od slova success vytvořit následující: příslovce, sloveso a přídavné jméno.

  2. Jaké je anonymum slova success?
     Pozn. Budete-li tápat, malou nápovědu najdete pod položkou 6 níže.

  3. Pokuste se vysvětlit anglicky vlastními slovy, co vnímáte, že se Winston Churchill větou čtenářům snažil sdělit, a/nebo vysvětlete, jak citát chápete sami. 

  4. K čemu se váže slovo „that“ v pasáži „it is the courage to continue that counts“?

  5. Vysvětlete, proč se před „isn’t fatal“ dává přednost výrazu „is not fatal“.

  6. Všimněte si zdůrazňovací větné stavby kolem slova „courage“ – nutnost jejího použití vychází z celkem striktně dodržovaného anglického slovosledu, který preferuje pořadí (1.) podmět – (2.) přísudek. Slovosled českého ekvivalentu, „důležitější je odvaha“ (kde podmět stojí až za přísudkem/slovesem), je v angličtině nepřijatelný, proto se pro větší důraz slovo courage posune tak, aby mohlo stát až za slovesem a přitom věta měla podmět umístěn před přísudkem, jak je v angličtině zvykem.
     ↓
     Zkuste podobně formulovat krátkou poznámku k našemu citátu: To řekl Winston Churchill.
     Task 2 Hint: The required word is mentioned in the quote.

  7. Translate the quote to Czech.

  Pozn.: Pozitivní, motivační citáty v angličtině na každý den nabízí řada aplikací i skupin na sociálních sítích, například Action for Happiness nebo Brainy Quote.

  Odpovědi k úkolům výše:

  1. Successfully, succeed, successful
  2. success X failure – i takto (←↑) je možné si rozšiřovat slovní zásobu.
  3. Co vymyslela AI: Winning isn’t everything, and losing isn’t the end; what matters most is having the courage to keep going. / Becoming successful doesn’t mean it lasts forever, and failing doesn’t mean it’s the end. / Success isn’t permanent, and failure isn’t a complete defeat. / Victory isn’t the ultimate end, and mistakes don’t lead to ruin. / Neither success nor failure defines us completely*O / Achieving success doesn’t mean the journey is over, and experiencing failure doesn’t mean the end. *C
     Najděte,
     • v čem jste se s AI shodli,
     • v čem ne,
     • čí řešení považujete za lepší
     • a vysvětlete proč.
  4. V této větě je „that“ vztažné zájmeno s významem „který“. Zde odkazuje na výraz „the courage to continue“ (odvaha pokračovat, která je důležitá).
  5. „Is not fatal“ je formálnější i důraznější a lépe se hodí k vážnému tónu citátu.
  6. Možné překlady poznámky: It was Winston Churchill that/who said that. Možné jsou samozřejmě i rozmanité další způsoby překladu, jež se liší slovesnými tvary, slaovní zásobou i pořadím slov, např. Winston Churchill was the one who said that. / That was said by Winston Churchill. / This statement was made by Winston Churchill. / It was Winston Churchill who made that statement. / That statement was made by none other than Winston Churchill. / It was Winston Churchill who expressed this.*O
  7. Možné překlady citátu:
     Úspěch není konečný, neúspěch není fatální: důležitější je odvaha pokračovat.
     Doslovně: ...je to odvaha, která se počítá.
