Now I will present you a different translation method. This method is called interlines translation method. It was used by Turkish translators to translate some Quranic verses 1000 years ago. This is word by word literal translation. I think it is really obvious why they gave up translating this way So I tried to translate a text with this method for a change. I hope it will be useful

He stopped opposite the child, and the two regarded each other. The dog

O    durdu     karşısında   -    çocuk,   ve   -   ikisi      baktı    bir      diğeri.   -   köpek

hesitated for a moment, but presently he made some little advances with his

bocaladı   için bir     an        ama  birazdan   o   yaptı    bazı   küçük ilerlemeler ile   onun

tail.     The child  put    out    his   hand and called him. In     an  apologetic 

kuruğu.   -     çocuk çıkardı  dışarı  onun   elini   ve   çağırdı  onu. İçinde  bir    mahcup

manner the dog    came  close.

tarz        -     köpek   geldi    yakın

Surprisingly it works to some extent, maybe because every syntactic function is marked in Turkish.

Where this method leaves you in trouble is when you try to translate indefinite compounds. It shows in the pre-/postposition structure on the first line of this text. Wasn´t it exactly compounds which was the most alien structure in old Turkish texts?

It doesn´t work properly with "for" , "with".

It is weird. Okay it doesn´t work properly  but it works. 

Gökuyum thank you for that information. Could you please give us the  Turkish name of it?  And if you have a further information about that method, it would be appreciated.

Its Turkish name is "Satırarası" or "Satıraltı" Çeviri. Here is a link of a document for you.

You can find this kind of Qur´an translations. This can be useful to learn Arabic.

Here is a page:: 

This book is not an Arabic Language text book. It is designed to convey the approximate meaning of original Quran, in Turkish.

There are Arabic Language text books to learn the language from.

I would have thought you would know the difference.

The Pope in Vatican is getting impatient.

He will soon have the Quran translated into Turkish correctly, so we can all learn our religion in our own language.

Our religion merchants will still be playing with their fingers and talking endless bulshit !

this method is quite old but it is still in use!

but you missed a point, there are two steps in these kind of translations.

1. word by word, sometimes two, three words together if a single word cant be translated.

2. at the end of every sentence, a proper translation comes afterwards.

in this method you cant miss details of literal translations and understand the proper translation better.

still in use for traditional arabic lessons, not for english i think.

a simple example:
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِِ

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

Now we begin...

1. Bismi (ismiyle), [kimin ismiyle?] allahi (allah´ın ismiyle), [öyle allah ki] errahmeeni (rahman olan allah), [ve daha öyle allah ki] arrahiimü (rahim olan allah.)

rahman: dünyada mümin ve müminata, kafir ve kafirata iyilik ve ihsanda bulunan allah.

rahim: ahirette yalnız mümin ve müminata iyilik ve ihsanda bulunan allah.

2. Dünyada mümin ve müminata, kafir ve kafirata iyilik ve ihsan eden; ahirette yalnız mümin ve müminata iyilik ve ihsan eden allahın adıyla ben başlarım.

or shortly

Rahman ve rahim olan allahın adıyla ben başlarım.

BTW, all arabic books was taught in this method in schools in ottoman times, still in use, too. As i experienced, very effective and useful, too.

I found similar translation in english:

I know it is not a textbook. But it can be still useful if you are not a beginner.
