 LO!
 

 

 

  Why the word "Love" is deference in one language!   i.e.  Romans 9:20

Romans 9:20 But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? "Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, 'Why did you make me like this?' "[a]

 

A French    German    Italian    Spanish    Swedish    Yiddish

    forme      Form        forma     forma        form         form

 

These words are NOT used in the same context as the English.  Idiomatic expressions differ from one language to another

 

i.e..      How old are you?  I am 8 years old in English

           How many years do you have?  I have 8 years in Spanish.  They do not use the verb "To be". They use the verb "To have." 

 

English is a very complicated language and cannot always be translated directly without taking this into account.

 

i.e.  Romans 9:20 in German [By the way, I do not have a translated German KJV only Luther translation]

 

Ja, lieber Mensch, wer bist du denn, dass du mit Gott rechten willst? Spricht auch ein Werk zu seinem Meister: Warum machst du mich so? NOTICE NO SUCH WORD AS FORM WAS USED!

 

Romans 9:20 in Spanish [KJV]

 

Mas antes, oh hombre, quien eres tu, para que alterques con Dios? Dira el vaso de barro al que lo formo: Por que ma has hecho asi? NOTICE FORM IS USED AS A REFLEXIVE VERB.

 [I do not have the Spanish script on line to put in the accent marks]
