My translation of Season of Storms ch. 1

My attempt at a translating the first chapter of Andrzej Sapkowski's new Witcher book:

Please share any feedback, mercilessly point out errors etc.

EDIT: Updated with corrections by grregg. Thanks!

Glad to see our translator can still set some time apart from his studies for us English speakers.

Can't wait to get off work and give this a read.

Good lord daemon, you translated an entire chapter already?

 

[Kodaemon5924]

It's pretty short, and it still took me several hours.

 

[Boreas_Mun_bg]

Thank you very much Kodaemon.

 

[MarcAuron]

About errors, my English is pretty limited so you will get better input from others.
But I just wanted to thank you for doing this.
Sapkowski seems still fascinating as in the past.
Thank you again.

Guys I would like to keep this really low key until I can get a response from someone at CDPR . Just to be on the safe side .

 

[Kodaemon5924]

I figure since the chapter is freely available in Polish, there's no harm done.

Good work, but "district administrator"? Why not "ispán?"

 

[Kodaemon5924]

I figured I'd go for something more commonly understandable.

I figure since the chapter is freely available in Polish, there's no harm done.

To be honest I don`t think any harm is being done either . But the other fan translations were for the older books and I was just trying to be on the safe side .

 

[tommy5761]

OK fellas you are free to continue as I was dying to read it

 

[Kodaemon5924]

Thanks!

 

[vivaxardas2015]

Thank you very much. Great job!

 

[Kyriene.376]

Awesome job there, thank you very much, it is greatly appreciated and just made my day

 

[GuyNwah]

Nicely done. The worst criticism I could make would be a few details of usage that only a longtime English speaker would recognize. You conveyed Albert Smulka's dialogue very well.

 

[Kodaemon5924]

Thank you, that means a lot to me

 

[Agent_Blue]

Kodaemon for President!

 

[wisielec]

ok, +1 from me za wkład i zaangażowanie
Nicely done.

Hm, I didn't even know the new book came out! Was it in Polish only so far?
