Latest revision as of 00:42, 4 August 2012
Greetings again. About the 'too soon' part of this line:
-The last man turned his hand persuader towards Master Shizu. Master Shizu threw down the man who ‘became a corpse too soon’ with his left hand.-
Does it mean 'the man (that was cut up by Master Shizu) will soon become a corpse too'? Or it is exactly 'the man became a corpse too soon'? If it's the former may I add a coma so the line become
- -The last man turned his hand persuader towards Master Shizu. Master Shizu threw down the man who ‘became a corpse too, soon’ with his left hand.- or
- -The last man turned his hand persuader towards Master Shizu. Master Shizu threw down the man who ‘soon became a corpse too’ with his left hand.- ?
Sorry for the trouble.-/-User753-Talk- 12:15, 1 August 2012 (CDT)
