Translation for "family in mourning" to german
Family in mourning
Translation examples
Before the death of the consul had shrouded the entire family in mourning, she had participated with unapproachable dignity in the social life of her parents’ home and attended parties in the homes of those of equal rank. Elisabeth had watched her and could not deny that, despite a handsome dowry and Clara’s domestic talents, she would have a difficult time marrying the child off.
Sie hatte, bevor der Tod des Konsuls die Familie in Trauer hüllte, mit unnahbarer Würde die Gesellschaften im Elternhause und den Häusern von gleicher Rangstufe mitgemacht … Die Konsulin betrachtete sie, und sie konnte sich nicht verhehlen, daß es trotz der stattlichen Mitgift und Klaras häuslicher Tüchtigkeit schwer halten werde, dies Kind zu verehelichen.
