[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do translations of “official” statements in russian always look like beuracratic gobbledygook. It’s like words don’t have any meaning. I understand the point of the above statement from the mayor, but it’s very weird. Does it just not translate? Is it lost in translation? [/quote] Just a very different style of communication which does get lost in translation, yes[/quote] Yes, it's the same for many languages and cultures. This is why official interpreters exist, to pick the right words and phrasing for what the person intends to express. You can't just AI your way through this... at least for now. I have a Korean interpreter friend who works diplomatic events. She finds the job quite rewarding. [/quote]
