Exempel
“Jag är vid porten, kan du öppna?”
I'm at the door, can you buzz me in?
“Det hörs ett vrål ifrån tusen kubik, men för Jonny själv är det ljuvlig musik, som en frihetssång, genom nattens trafik mot en soluppgång. Intill en port väntar Cathrine med sin syntpop och sin avmätta min. Men hon tinar upp när Jonnys maskin vrålar ut sin sång, att natten är lång.”
There's [it is heard] a roar from a thousand cc, but to Jonny himself, it's a sweet melody [lovely music], like a freedom song, through the night-time traffic towards a sunrise. Next to a [more robust] door [to an apartment building or the like], Cathrine waits with her synth-pop and her chilly [facial] expression. But she thaws out when Jonny's machine roars out its song, that the night is long.
