English term

nobody knows

English to Spanish Other Linguistics I think the message today is, nobody knows, and experimenting is what we have to encourage.
I think the message today is, nobody knows, and experimenting is what we have to encourage. Artists need to recognize that and need to be part of the process. As a lawyer, and a founder of Creative Commons, I do not tell artists that they ought to give away their stuff for free. I tell them that they need to use the tools available and to experiment to find out what works for them.

Incomplete sentence The subjective complement is missing in this sentence.
"I think the message today is ????, nobody knows,..."
Y. Peraza Mar 20, 2011:
Context I think Ricardo Galarza has a point. Is there a previous paragraph that might affect the meaning of that "nobody knows"?

nadie lo sabe

Presumo que viene precedido de otra oración, y al sujeto de esa oración corresponde el artículo determinativo "lo" en esta.

Saludos.

no se sabe nada

Diría algo como: "Creo que hoy en día el mensaje es que no se sabe nada y que lo que tenemos que fomentar es la investigación"
