Supplemental Nights to the Book of the Thousand and One Nights — Volume 3 (of 6) Part 1

I long failed to find my want: the vernaculars in Persian and Turkish are translated direct from the Arabic texts, and all ignore the French stories.

我长期苦寻而不得：波斯语和土耳其语的译本都是直接从阿拉伯语原文译出，全都忽略了那些法语故事。

Unfortunately Totárám Sháyán makes no mention at all of the source whence he made his translation whether English or Arabic.

遗憾的是，托塔拉姆·沙扬完全没有说明他翻译所依据的来源是英文还是阿拉伯文。
