squaresinger@lemmy.world 1 week agoDuring Trumps first regime, German-speaking newspapers (and probably a few others around the world) had a quite intense discussion on how to translate Trumps meandering garbage.
They could either translate him more loosely, making him sound like a actual human, but then people wouldn’t know what a baboon he is. Or they could translate him more literally, keeping his “style” of talking and then everyone would believe that the translator messed up royally, because no human being that’s halfway in their right mind would speak like that.
