→‎Bible Translation: There is no equivalent for "get" in French, so a good French translation of "get" should vary depending on the context.

::I think this is a case of the word increase being used as increasingly. "will increasingly increase your seed" and "I will increase your seed increasingly". It's the same word but with different suffixes. By using suffixes like this where appropriate, I would think the total words used will increase to over 10 or 12 thousand for the Old Testament. --[[User:JZambrano|Joshua Zambrano]] 22:08, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

:::You post a very interesting analysis and good statistics.  Thanks for providing that information.  But I still feel that the original meaning is what matters, not consistency in translating a Greek word the same way in very different contexts.  "Logos" had a variety of original meanings in Greek, just as "get" does in English today.  There is no equivalent for "get" in French, so a good French translation of "get" should vary depending on the context.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 23:22, 3 September 2012 (EDT)
