Need help for translating a catch phrase of a poster into Chinese


TA

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am an associate member of veterinary task force working in a local city of Japan. I am asked recently to translate the following sets of poster catch phrases into different languages to make a multilingual poster. Very unfortunately, I do not speak Chinese. So, that is why I finally arrived at this forum.

 

The poster is now being made and distributed to remind people of bringing their food waste back to their own home, say, when they camp in a river or a mountain. According to the veterinarians, wild pigs or boars can eat them and become infected with the corona virus if those people who threw them away were already infected. The newly infected animals, in turn, infect other humans with the virus, because wild pigs or boars can carry the virus. Therefore, what they came up with is the catch phrases in the below. There are two versions of them, for each of which I hope anyone on this forum can translate into Chinese.

 

  1. Take all food waste away with you when you leave.
    It can infect the wild pigs with the virus if they eat it.
     
  2. Take all food waste away with you when you leave.
    The wild pigs may eat it and pass the virus to people.
     

If I am allowed, I would like to ask you to translate them into two versions of Chinese, Simplified Chinse (簡体字) and Traditional Chinse (繁体字). Even if I am not allowed to do this, any suggestion or translation will be much appreciated. Thank you for your attention.

离开此地时,请将所有食物垃圾随身带走。

野猪食垃圾可能会得患新冠病毒。

Thank you very much for all the comments and suggestions. I could not find such a place like this elsewhere. 

 

These are helpful enough but I would like to see a refined version (to: If_IwasaLinguist), as these are used as a poster's catch phrase, which prioritizes getting the attention of people who see it.

离开的时候请随身携带走所有的食物残渣,因为如果野猪误食的话可能会感染病毒。

virus means 病毒, not 新冠病毒( novel cornovirus).
