Hi all -
I am translating an article from a sports newspaper (SportLunedi).
The article concerns a series of tennis matches.
I am not sure how to best translate the phrase "si gioca la permanenza diretta" and am wondering if anyone can tell me what it means.
Attached is a screen cap, the phrase is at the very end of the third column .
Thanks everyone!
Michael

rule out the risk of relegation
Si intende la possibilità di rimanere nella categoria, e quindi di non retrocedere, senza dover disputare altre gare. Nel calcio si parlerebbe di salvezza diretta (quando cioè la squadra ha punti sufficienti per restare nella categoria senza dover disputare i playout).
Si può naturalmente scegliere una formulazione diversa da quella che ho proposto io, ma il senso è quello.

the playing is/the A1 matches go on, non-stop
If, in this case, "diretta" means "non-stop", which is one translation that is given for it in the Cambridge online IT>EN glossary. This would cover the term "permanenza", which can refer to a period of time.

| Thanks for this. I did check that reference (the Cambridge online dictionary) but checking "diretta" I only found listed "in diretta" which is of "live broadcast." Of course all the other online sources give the predictable "direct." So, in re the Cambridge site, would you have a link? I am probably not looking on the right page of that site. Thanks! Perhaps |
| Eeek; I typed "diretta" in the dictionary instead of generalizing it to "diretto." Obviously, I haven't taken my Gingko Biloba today... Thanks! |
