How to translate? (ru-en)

Прочитал вторую за этот год книгу. Теперь не знаю, как избавиться от этого пьянящего чувства превосходства над окружающими.

Author’s comment

I know what this means. This is for translation practice for anyone willing to try.

Oleg: I’ve read the/my second book _ this year. Now I don’t know how to get rid of this INTOXICATING feeling of superiority over others. | Excellent work!

It was the second book that I read this year/over the year. How can I shake this heady feeling of superiority over others?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 3 years ago

Tatiana, that’s a little contrived. Try again. Look at Oleg’s translation.

Tatiana Gerasimenkoadded a comment 3 years ago

Вторая попытка - это уже нечестно:))

That was my second book which I've read this year. And now I don't know how to escape that besotting feeling of superiority over others.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 3 years ago

THAT WAS and IT WAS make it sound like it’s about the book. But this is about the speaker.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 3 years ago

My version: I just finished my second book this year and I can’t seem to shake this intoxicating feeling of superiority over others.

Alexander Аkimovadded a comment 3 years ago

Just one note: is FOR needed before "this year" in Oleg's translation?

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 3 years ago

No sir, that’s what my _ means - delete!

Alexander Аkimovadded a comment 3 years ago

Al, why “managed“? It makes them sound dyslexic.

Tatiana Gerasimenkoadded a comment 2 years ago

Al решил обогатить словарь LL в этот свой comeback. :):(

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 2 years ago

Well, I personally see no call for “managed” in the original Russian context. This person merely read their second book, no?
