So Nice, Such a Sweet Blue Sky

Referencia:

Adjetivos
Sustantivos

So: Tan

Such (a, an):
D
e ese, (Una/s) de esas, (Uno/s) de esos .

(La anterior traducción de la palabra Such es mía,
y para mí es la forma más general y práctica
de entender su función en muchas de las frases
donde su otra traducción: Tal(es), tal(es) cual, tal(es) como, no encaja.

Un ejemplo, de la traducción: Tales como,
está en la sección de ABOUT THE ROCKET SUMMER
en el sitio web del cantante cuyo video publico más abajo:

http://www.myspace.com/therocketsummer

Donde unas 3 veces se escribe Such as,
para enumerar problemas sociales, bandas y ciudades.



Nota: De acuerdo a mi propuesta de traducción,
That's such a tired tactic,
por ejemplo traduciría:

Esa es una de esas tácticas trilladas.

En Inglés se escribe singular,
pero pienso que el significado en nuestro idioma es plural.



Ejemplos contrastando el uso de So y de Such:

That singer is so well-known.
They saw such well-known singers as Juanes and Carlos vives.

The weather was so nice.
We haven't had such nice weather for a long time!

The movie was so good.
It was such a good movie.

I'm so tired.
That's such a tired tactic.

It is a rare gift to be so talented.
Such talent is a rare gift.

I felt so foolish.
I fell, and I felt like such a fool.


He is so optimistic.
Paula is such an optimist.

Skies So Blue - The Rocket Summer

A veces perdemos a alguien,

pero si sabemos que está en el cielo,
podemos verlo siempre de color azul.

Si sabemos que esa persona está con Dios
y aunque la extrañemos
no hay por que estar siempre tristes
algún día cantaremos juntos esta canción.



(woah-oh, uh, woah-oh) x4

May, I just say something?
I'm glad that you are here
I got to start to thinking
and seeing things so clear

'Cause now how could I forget
Why she left?
What happened in November
Is why I need her

And I'm sorry that it shows
but life ain't so bad you know?

And now the skies are such sweet blue*
and you made this come true
and my heart feels so new
(woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah, woah, woah-oh)

It's now wonderful to see beautiful views
like skies that are so blue*
(woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh woah, woah, woah-oh)

woah-oh!
I'll never leave this, you know...

I'd turn it off for this
Looks like we got what we wished

It snowed in Texas, but you missed (first time since '86)
and I can't stop thinking
how wonderful this is
And I'm sorry, I sound glad
But why always be so sad?

And now the skies are such sweet blue
and you made this come true
and my heart feels so new
(woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah, woah, woah-oh)

It's now wonderful to see beautiful views
like skies that are so blue
(woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah, woah, woah-oh)



Ba, ba, ba, ba...
Ba, ba, ba, ba...
Ba, ba, ba, ba...
Ba...

And I know that sometimes, uh...
I might feel alone, so broke, and cold
But now I'll show... that I know...

That the skies are such sweet blue
and you made this come true
and my heart feels so new
(woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah, woah, woah-oh)

It's now wonderful to see beautiful views
like skies that are so blue

(woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah, woah, woah-oh)

(Woah-oh)

I'll never leave this, you know...

(Woah-oh) x3

(Woah-oh, uh, woah-oh) x4

Woah-oh...
