Ik zie het wel zitten + context
A zegt: "Ik zie het wel zitten."
B: "Ik zie alleen maar beren op de weg."
C:"Ik zie niets."
Nu moet ik "ik zie het wel zitten" in het Engels hebben, maar 'het zien' moet er in blijven. Iemand een suggestie?
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.

I see our chance
Uit "The adventures of Huckleberry Finn:"
"The duke he begun to abuse him for an old fool, and the king begun to sass back; and the minute they were fairly at it, I lit out, and shook the reefs out of my hind legs, and spun down the river road like a deer - for I see our chance; and I made up my mind that it would be a long day before they ever see me and Jim again."
