OET interlinear ACTs 27:14

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

μετ’ οὐ πολὺ

after (Some words not found in SR-GNT: μετʼ οὒ πολύ Δέ ἔβαλεν κατʼ αὐτῆς ἄνεμος τυφωνικός ὁ καλούμενος Εὐρακύλων)

Luke is using a figure of speech that expresses a positive meaning by using a negative word together with a word that is the opposite of the intended meaning. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [after a short time]

Note 2 topic: translate-transliterate

ὁ καλούμενος Εὐρακύλων

¬which ˓being˒_called ˓the˒_Euraquilo

The term Euraklyon is a combination of the Greek word for the east wind and the Latin word for the north wind. Luke spells out the term using Greek letters so that his readers will know how it sounds. This seems to be the name that Luke heard the sailors give to this wind. In your translation, you could spell it the way it sounds in your language. You could also say what it means. Alternate translation: [called the Northeaster]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὁ καλούμενος

¬which ˓being˒_called

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [that the sailors called]

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

αὐτῆς

˱from˲_it

The pronoun it refers to the island of Crete. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [the island of Crete]
