the footprint [of the bridge] has been positioned Explanation: i.e. The footprint of the bridge has been positioned relative to the existing bridge so as not to… “The footprint of the building has been positioned relative to the shape of the plot” http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:mBVm-mo... situativne = position of the footprint (i.e. situatívne usporiadanie, as opposed to výškové usporiadanie) |

the position of the new bridge does not have any influence the old one Explanation: No to je ale krásna slovenská krkolmná vetička! :-) Básnik (Hviezdoslav náš stavebnícky) tým podľa mňa chcel povedať: "Nový most som umiestnil (situoval) tak, aby nemal vplyv na ten starý". No chcel to povedať oveľa múdrejšie, veď predsa má aj vysokú školu! :-) No a takto vzniká potom naša novodobá lyrická tvorba. Básnikov novotvar "situatívny" sa nenachádza ani v nekodifikačných slovníkoch Štúrových pokračovateľov (http://slovniky.korpus.sk/), preto by som ho kľudne z vety vynechal a toto minidielko interpretoval tak, ako som uviedol vyššie. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2013-10-14 05:00:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Aha, teraz vidím, že som ešte zabudul slovíčko "on" - samozrejme "on the old one" |
