English term

judiciously edit them

English to Italian Art/Literary Cinema, Film, TV, Drama Teatro
Commedia teatrale canadese. Dialogo tra due amici. Uno dei due è uno scrittore che spesso parla avventatamente.

A: Do you ever think about what you say?
B: I think about everything I say.
A: Really?
B: Yes. But, I think about it after I say it. That's the writer in me. The thoughts spill out of my head and then I go back later and judiciously edit them.

La mia proposta:

[...]
A: [...] I pensieri escono fuori dalla mia testa e dopo ci ritorno su e li riesamino con giudizio.

Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie!

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Daniela Zambrini, Francesco Badolato

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

La traduzione di Danilo mi sembra ottima, non c'è che dire !

Danilo,
a me non dispiace la tua scelta di "con giudizio" per "judiciously", perché credo che evidenzi la differenza fra l'avventatezza delle parole dette senza pensare, e invece un esame più "giudizioso"...

li rielaboro scrupolosamente

o minuziosamente

per spill out ti suggerisco "schizzare fuori", così sottolinei l'impulsività della mente creativa di uno scrittore, il quale non può controllare il proprio pensiero

i pensieri schizzano fuori dalla mia testa, dopo un po' ci torno su e li rielaboro scrupolosamente
