Tonsillectomia

[SCHWERTFISCH]

Good Evening,

I would like to ask you for your help. I can't find another word to translate "TONSILLECTOMIA".

Here is the sentence to be translated:

"opuscolo informativo dedicato ai bambini operati di tonsillectomia"

My attempt:

" Leaflet to be followed by children after Tonsillectomy"

Thank you in advance

Io direi:

"Information leaflet for children who underwent tonsillectomy".

Perchè non vuoi usare tonsillectomy? Pensi che sia troppo tecnico e quindi non facilmente comprensibile?

Ciao

Grazie Skin,

Devo tradurre un opuscolo dedicato ai bambini e letto dai bambini, per Questo cercavo un termine più semplice....ma forse non c'è! Grazie mille per il tuo aiuto!

Agreed, Tonsillectomy is perfectly understandable.
And Skin's translation is quite fluent, I would use it.

hi Ruccini,

this is what I thought too, and I am going to use it!

thank you!

Un termine laico c'è. As children we would always say to have your tonsils taken out... so perhaps a more child friendly version might contain something similar...But the first part is pretty formal

Leaflet to be followed by children

So you'd have to change the whole thing...


Kids, had your tonsils taken out?..A leaflet for you!

Grazie mille Byrne,

I must say that your translation is very interesting!

Thank you
