Translation from English to Dutch? ?
Q. the mid-18th-century Spanish land-grant programme in the sentence: Margaret Dorsey, an anthropologist from the University of Pennsylvania who studies Texas s Lower Rio Grande Valley, says many local families can trace their roots to the mid-18th-century Spanish land-grant programme And Increasingly, the problem is less the ease of illegal immigration than the difficulty of legal migration. online translators are no good. I study translation-interpretatio n and for my final paper I have to translate a lot of texts. I find these two sentence rather difficult so I thought that perhaps a native could be of some assistance.

A. Not an easy text to translate, I'm sorry to say, but the other answers aren't very good. I gave it a couple of minutes and this is what I would write in Dutch: "Margaret Dorsey, een antropologe van de Universiteit van Pennsylvania die de Texaanse beneden Rio Grandevallei bestudeert, zegt dat veel lokale families hun oorsprong kunnen vinden in het middenachttiende-eeuwse Spaanse landtoewijzingsprogramma. Het probleem is meer (het feit) dat legale immigratie steeds moeilijker wordt dan (het feit) dat illegale immigratie gemakkelijk is." I have a hard time translating "lower", if it means "southern part", then you should translate by "het zuidelijke deel". In any case, don't use "lager", if you're speaking of a delta, its "beneden".
