Pas trop mécontent du résultat.
Bach yn anodd darllen, ond enghraifft dda o gyfieithiad sy’n dweud y gwrthwyneb i’r Saesneg wreiddiol. Bwrdd gwybodaeth bywyd gwyllt wrth Afon Rheidiol, Aberystwyth.
Again, this probably seems trivial, but surely bilingualism means I shouldn’t have to read the English to get accurate information.
TIL: (thanks #TheGuardian I guess): #German "Aufguss" is already a #Loanword in #English, and it is actually a form of experimental theater:
"This is “Aufguss”, a German term for “infusion” that has been translated for American audiences as “wellness theater”. The art form, long popular in Europe, is getting its North American debut in an unexpected place: Sin City"
Ok, for reasons of fairness, I also tag this as #BadTranslation

In the middle of a deep dive here, but ran across this and had to share. Beware of shoddy machine translations. Liaozhai is wild, but not wild like this:

When machine translation goes horribly wrong.
I'm buying some sausages from Shandong. Here's how the description is translated:
> Shandong specialty Laiwukou town sausage air-dried sausage sausage pork sausage manual enema 250g vacuum cooked food salty
Most of it is just comically inept, linguistically speaking.
Then you hit the fatal words: "manual enema".
I did not need to associate enemas with my food, thank you very much!

Uhmmm, I will definitely be grabbing the jimp wire with my orther tool! #badtranslation
The English translation is baffling.
I was REALLY confused by the translation provided by Instagram… I was trying to figure out where the “squirrels” figured into this crime…
The correct translation was “squires”…
