Hey there!

I've been trying to translate this dialogue - which I believe is Dutch - from a cool sinking scene, and the translate programs I've tried keep missing the essence of this. I get the idea but the poetry of the dialogue is lost in translation, so to speak.

Can anyone help? Here's the words...

Dit is gewoon een moddermeer!

Kom! We zakken hoe langer hoe dieper weg!

Ik... ik kan niet meer.... Ik... zak weg in de modder!

Many thanks!

I cannot help with the translation but if a translater for Dutch is not quite right, it just might be Afrikans.

Hello,

I'm speaking Dutch.

You can try Google Translate, to translate the tekst, use this link: http://translate.google.com/#nl/en/

My English is not zo good, but I would translate this dialog as follow:

Dit is gewoon een moddermeer! : This is a normal muddy Lake!

Kom! We zakken hoe langer hoe dieper weg! : Come on! We sink deeper and more deeper!

Ik... ik kan niet meer.... Ik... zak weg in de modder! : I ... I have no more strength .... I ... sink into the mud!

I hope this is what you mean.
