English to Spanish: Thirty Famous Stories by James Baldwin General field: Other Detailed field: Education / Pedagogy
Source text - English Five, ten, fifteen years passed by, and then the words of Hamilcar came true. A great war was begun between Rome and Carthage. It was the second time that these mighty nations had engaged in a fierce struggle for the mastery.
Hamilcar was dead; and Hannibal, twenty-four years old, had taken his place as leader of the armies of Carthage. "The day that I have been waiting for has come at last," he said.
He was ready for the war. Before the Romans could collect an army he was on the march. With many thousands of fighting men and a great number of horses and elephants, he moved northward through Spain. He marched into southern France, which was then called Gaul. The Romans hastily sent an army against him, but they could do nothing to hinder his progress. He crossed the great river Rhone. The Alps mountains, lofty and rugged, stood like an impassable wall before him.
Translation - Spanish Pasaron cinco, diez, quince años, y entonces las palabras de Amílcar se hicieron realidad. Comenzó una gran guerra entre Roma y Cartago; por segunda vez estas poderosas naciones se enfrascaban en una lucha feroz por el dominio.
Amílcar había muerto y Aníbal, de veinticuatro años, había asumido su puesto como jefe de los ejércitos de Cartago. "Por fin ha llegado el día que tanto he esperado", dijo.
Estaba listo para la guerra. Antes de que los romanos pudieran armar un ejército, se puso en marcha. Con miles y miles de combatientes y un gran número de caballos y elefantes, se movilizó por España hacia el norte en dirección al sur de Francia, que entonces se llamaba Galia. Los romanos se apresuraron a enviar un ejército contra él, pero no pudieron hacer nada para impedir su avance. Aníbal logró cruzar el gran río Ródano, pero los Alpes, elevados y escarpados, se alzaron ante él como un muro infranqueable.
