Late one Sunday afternoon in May 1863, Professor lidenbrock came home early. He was excited. He exclaimed when he found an old book. It is more than six hundred years old. It was fantastic. This book is a translation of a famous Icelandic book. It was written by Snorri Sturlasson in the twelfth century.
حضر البروفيسور " ليدنبروك " الى بيته متأخراً فى ظهر يوم الأحد فى شهر مايوعام 1863 وتعجب كثيراً عندما وجد كتاب قديم عمره أكثر من ستمائة عام. كان الكتاب رائع. هذا الكتاب هو ترجمه لكتاب أيسلندى شهير كتبه " سنورى ستورلاسون " فى القرن الثانى عشر.
A piece of parchment fell out of the book. There were strange letters on it. It was written in runes which were the letters of the Icelandic alphabet. He looked puzzled. He was angry because the letters on the parchment were mixed up, and he couldn't understand it. It was written in a secret code, and there was something else.
سقطت قطعه من الورق( المصنوع من جلد الحيوان ) من الكتاب و كانت هناك حروف ابجديه مكتوبه فيها. هذه الحروف كانت حروف اللغه الأيسلنديه القديمه. كانالبروفيسور يبدو متحيراً وكان غاضباً لأن الحروف كانت مختلطه ولم يستطع فهمها. كانت مكتوبه بشفره سريه و كان هناك شئ اخر.
The book and the parchment weren't written in the same handwriting. Therefore Professor thought that the parchment was written by someone who owned the book.
كانت الورقه مكتوبه بخط مختلف عن الخط المكتوب فى الكتاب. و منذ ذلك الوقت اعتقد البروفيسور ان الورقه مكتوبه عن طريق شخص ما امتلك هذا الكتاب.
When the Professor used a magnifying glass to make the letter bigger, he looked at the parchment again and pointed to a line of letters. " Arne Saknussemm ", that's an Icelandic name. He was a famous Icelandic scientist of the sixteenth century. He made many great scientific discoveries. He must have owned this book.
عندما استخدم البروفيسور عدسات مكبره لتكبير الحروف , نظر الى الورقه مره أخرى و أشار الى صف من الحروف. " ارن ساكنوسيم " هو اسم ايسلندى و كان عالم ايسلندى مشهور من القرن السادس عشر , قام بالكثير من الاكتشافات العلميه العظيمه. فلابد ان يكون هو صاحب هذا الكتاب.
Professor asked himself "why Saknussemm wanted to hide what he had discovered ". Professor guessed that the message was written in Latin and not Icelandic. Scientists of the sixteenth century always wrote about their discoveries in Latin. He tried reading the letters but they still made no sense.
سأل البروفيسور نفسه " لماذا أراد ساكنوسيم ان يخفى ما اكتشفه " فخمن البروفيسور ان الرساله قد تمت كتابتها بالغه اللاتينيه و ليست الأيسلنديه. كان العلماء فى القرن السادس عشر يكتبون عن أكتشافاتهم باللغه اللاتينيه. حاول البروفيسور قراءة الحروف و لكنها ما زالت بلا معنى.
