Hello everyone.
The sentences below are translations that I made from the same Japanese sentence. Do they make sense?
1. To wild animals, losing their teeth means death.
2. For wild animals, losing their teeth means death.
3. If wild animals lose their teeth, it means death to them.
4. It means death to wild animals if they lose their teeth.
5.It means death to wild animals that they lose their teeth.
Any comment would be appreciated.
Best regards,
fw |

#1, #2, #3, #4 are OK, though I would not say #3 myself.
#5 doesn't work, sorry.  |
