[Gość: arnold]

czy ktoś mi może prztłumaczyć zdanie: 2 lata temu ukończyłem prawo na
Uniwersytecie Warszawskim. Czy określenie graduade można stosować wyłącznie
do szkoły średniej?

[Gość: salmotrutta]

...2 years ago, I've graduated with the law degree from the University of
Warsaw...

[Gość: marianna]

2 poprawki:
I graduated...
a law degree

[Gość: salmotrutta]

...whatever...both forms are correct...

[Gość: marek]

no - you were incorrect twice:

(1) you specified the time ( 2 years ago); hence, "I graduated"

(2) your degree is of unknown type, and the university may grant many different
types of law degree; hence "a law degree"

[Gość: salmotrutta]

...from the nitpicking point of view, certainly...so to make sure we are
talking about the same thing, a question...how many law degrees can you
graduate with?...I know of only one...Bachelor of Laws...if you were to refer
to advanced degrees you would specify which one you have in mind...still I have
been known to be wrong before;)))...

I like it! nt

Two years ago I graduated law school of Warsaw University.

or

Two years ago I graduated Warsaw University’s law school

[Gość: cheshirecat]

I would translate this sentence as 'Two years ago I graduated from Warsaw
University with a law degree'.

[etbl]

Arnold, poprawne tlumaczenie Twojego zdania :

Dwa lata temu ukonczylem prawo na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim.

jest jak nastepuje:

Two years ago I graduated in law from the University of Warsaw/Warszawa.

1)" I graduated" a nie: "I've graduated" poniewaz podany jest dokladny punkt
czasowy w przeszlosci, tzn."dwa lata temu"

2)ukonczyc prawo: " to graduate in law"

3)"na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim" w tym kontekscie "from the University of
Warsaw"

Zrodlo: Collins Cobuild - "English Dictionary for Advanced Learners",Harper
Collins Publishers, 2001, s.680, "graduate"3.

[Gość: Mia]

Everything is O.K. but it should be rather 'Law' than 'law' as we mean the name
of faculty.

[Gość: etbl]

To oczywiscie tylko detale, Mia, ale to bylaby dodatkowa informacja, ktorej
wlasciwie nie ma w orginalnym zdaniu. Nie ma wyraznego podkreslenia, ze to
z "the Faculty of Law".

Tu przytaczam doslowny przyklad z innego slownika:

He graduated from Oxford in law.

Zrodlo: A.S.Hornby,"Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary of Current English",
s.381,"graduate"2 - 2.

[etbl]

W Wielkiej Brytanii wyrazenia "to graduate from" uzywa sie w stosunku do
uniwersytetu lub college.

W Stanach - w stosunku do high school, college lub university.

[Gość: Tamtejszy]

You don't "graduate in law" in Ameryka. You garduate from a Law School of such-
and-such university.
Besides, to be a lawyer one has ho pass the bar exam and gain the title
of "esquire"; with that you become a full fledged lawyer with all the rigtes to
call yoursef such.

[zegar4]

The verb "graduate" may be a problem word.
"I graduated from..." is common, but it does not make a lot of sense to those
who care

[Gość: IP: *.chello.pl]

years ago I finished law.
but since u wonna use the term "graduate", then, "years ago i graduated from
law school."
