Was bedeutet folgendes auf Englisch? Ich hatte Probleme es zu übersetzen:

Er faltet, um die Ähnlichkeit noch vollkommener zu machen, seine Hände über den goldenen Knöpfchen, die seinen Bauch verschliessen, und gibt sich einer beharrlichen Betrachtung der Luft hin, dem Spiel der Sonnenstäubchen und wahrschainlich einigen Gedanken, die sein Privatleben berühren dürften.

Also: he folds his hands around the golden buttons to make the similaritz more (perfect?) which closes his stomach.....

Ich brauche Hilfe!
Danke

kannst ja sonst ´ne Onlineübersetzung nehmen:

It folds, in order to make the similarity still more perfect, its hands over the golden Knoepfchen, which lock its belly, and gives oneself to a persistent view of air, the play of the Sonnenstaeubchen and wahrschainlich unites thoughts, which might affect its private life.
(<-- Google Sprachtools)

But the translation by google is sh*t.


I can't really say what it exactly means, but maybe I can help you with the meaning.

"gibt sich einer beharrlichen Betrachtung der Luft hin...." means that he is steadily watching the air, the play / game of the "sundust" (dunno why that word is used hier, but that translation is very close), and probably some thoughts which might concern his private life.

I Would say it nearly that way:

He folds, in order to make the similarity still more perfect, his hands over the golden (little Buttons on his clothes), which lock its belly, and gives oneself to a persistent view of the air, the play of the Sun-Dust and maybe some thoughts, which might affect his private life.

Ich würde sagen (ich komme aus America )

In order to perfect the similarity, he folds his hands over the golden buttons, which locks his belly, and gives a persistent view of the air, the play of the sun-dust, and probably a/some thoughts, that may effect his private life.

Hoffentlich ist das nicht zu spät!
