English to Burmese: A part from my translation of the article " Natural Remedy for Eczema: Ozonated Olive Oil" by Dr. Edward Group
Source text - English Eczema is a skin condition in which sections of the epidermis become rough, red, and
inflamed, causing itching and sometimes bleeding. More than 30 million Americans suffer
from atopic dermatitis, more commonly called eczema. It can appear on any area of the body,
and people with dry, sensitive skin and skin allergies suffer the worst. When the intense itch of
eczema flares up, finding relief may be your top priority. Fortunately, there are natural remedies
that work to relieve the pain and irritation.
Natural Remedies for Itchy Skin and Atopic Dermatitis
Adding epsom salts and magnesium flakes to a warm bath is a great way to soothe
irritated, dry skin. You can also gently rub coconut oil into your skin to moisturize. Jojoba oil
is similar to our skin’s natural oil, sebum, so it sinks in deep to calm and promote healing.
The oatmeal bath is another popular favorite for an intense case of skin irritation due to
dermatitis. A study found a combination of honey, beeswax, and olive oil prevent bacteria
and fungus from aggravating the skin.
How Can Ozonated Olive Oil Help with Eczema?
Another natural remedy to consider is ozonated olive oil like O2-Zap®. Ozonated
olive oil delivers oxygen directly to your skin where it stimulates the growth of skin cells and
improves cellular function. The olive oil cleanses, sterilizes, and acts as a moisturizing agent.
Combined, they reduce redness and swelling, calm nerves, and promote healthy skin.
English to Burmese: A part from my translation of the short story "Apollo" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Source text - English Fifteen years earlier, my parents would have scoffed at these stories. My mother, a
professor of political science, would have said “Nonsense” in her crisp manner, and my father,
a professor of education, would merely have snorted, the stories not worth the effort of speech.
It puzzled me that they had shed those old selves and become the kind of Nigerians who told
anecdotes about diabetes cured by drinking holy water.
Still, I humored them and half listened to their stories. It was a kind of innocence, this new
childhood of old age. They had grown slower with the passing years, and their faces lit up at
the sight of me and even their prying questions— “When will you give us a grandchild? When
will you bring a girl to introduce to us?”—no longer made me as tense as before. Each time I
drove away, on Sunday afternoons after a big lunch of rice and stew, I wondered if it would be
the last time I would see them both alive, if before my next visit I would receive a phone call
from one of them telling me to come right away. The thought filled me with a nostalgic sadness
that stayed with me until I got back to Port Harcourt. And yet I knew that if I had a family, if I
could complain about rising school fees as the children of their friends did, then I would not
visit them so regularly. I would have nothing for which to make amends.
During a visit in November, my parents talked about the increase in armed robberies
all over the east. Thieves, too, had to prepare for Christmas. My mother told me how a vigilante
mob in Onitsha had caught some thieves, beaten them, and torn off their clothes—how old tires
had been thrown over their heads like necklaces, amid shouts for petrol and matches, before
the police arrived, fired shots in the air to disperse the crowd, and took the robbers away. My
mother paused, and I waited for a supernatural detail that would embellish the story. Perhaps,
just as they arrived at the police station, the thieves had turned into vultures and flown away.
“Do you know,” she continued, “one of the armed robbers, in fact the ring leader, was Raphael?
He was our houseboy years ago. I don’t think you’ll remember him.” I stared at my mother.
“Raphael?”
“It’s not surprising he ended like this,” my father said. “He didn’t start well.”
My mind had been submerged in the foggy lull of my parents’ storytelling, and I struggled now
with the sharp awakening of memory. My mother said again, “You probably won’t remember
him. There were so many of those houseboys. You were young.” But I remembered. Of course,
I remembered Raphael.
