Title: French translator required
Post by: Mango Stein on June 01, 2020, 12:01:47 AM
If there is anyone fluent in French who would like to volunteer a little translation, I am interested to know the characteristics of Eugenia michelii as described here: https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/721638#page/210/mode/1up (https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/721638#page/210/mode/1up) It is number 27. Pretty much just interested to know what the fruit are like, and how to differentiate from E. uniflora.

Update: Thanks to the person who PM'd me a transcription, which I was able to use in Google Translate. It reads "The fruit is a globose berry, slightly torose or with rounded sides, red in its maturity, crowned by the calyx, and which contains, under a soft flesh, slightly acerbic and refreshing. a globular and monosperm nucleus."

It seems to be the same as E. uniflora. The name is invalid, even though it may show as valid in some databases.

While there might be problems with the more technical words, I have had great luck running articles, paragraph by paragraph, through Google Translate.  https://translate.google.com

Good luck!

You don't have to translate paragraphe by paragraphe, you Can simply copy the link of the original website in the left case of Google translator (as if you want to translate thé link), then click on "translated" link that appears in the right case. Thé website should appears in the translated language.
