I found this in an old sewing box I bought. I believe it's Chinese. Can anyone translate it for me? I did an image search on Google for it, but came up blank. #Chinesewords #Chineselanguage #Chinesetranslation

Wrote my attempt at translation of ‘deer park’ by Wang Wei. I think I will play with it for ever, trying to come to a better sound and a closer meaning. I’ll put it in a reply below. I would love to have other peoples translations attempts and thoughts on the poem. #chinesepoetry #chinesetranslation

Read ‘19 ways of looking at wang wei’ by Eliot Weinberger in the last day or two. Couldn’t sleep last night and ended up spending most of it ‘translating’ Deer Park myself. Thinking about art is infinitely better than worrying about world events.

@spottingthespot on Twitter: Do not write 'Abstract', but use Pumping elephant from now on! I applaud these authors for their creativity. Abstract, so boring! A pumping elephant is more interesting! @SpringerNature did retract this paper, I wonder why... doi.org/10.1007/s11356... Environmental Science and Pollution Research (2021) 28:68251-68260 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-021-14986-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on socio-economic and sustainability Xueli Wei¹2. Lijing Li¹. Fan Zhang¹ Received: 5 April 2021/Accepted: 15 June 2021/Published online: 15 July 2021 The Author(s) 2021 Pumping elephant The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the lives of people around the world in millions of ways. Due to this severe epidemic, all countries in the world have been affected by all aspects, mainly economic. It is widely discussed that the COVID-19 outbreak has affected the world economy. When considering this dimension, this study aims to examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the world economy, socio-economics, and sustainability. In addition, the research focuses on multiple aspects of social well-being during the pandemic, such as employment, poverty, the status of women, food security, and global trade. To this end, the study used time series and cross-sectional analysis of the data. The second-hand data used in this study comes from the websites of major international organizations. From the analysis of secondary data, ... Viktor T. Toth: After noticing that all the authors have Chinese names, and with the help of one of our AI friends, I think I was able to make sense of what happened. The authors mistranslated "Abstract" as "抽象" (chōuxiàng) in Chinese, which does mean "abstract" but in the sense of "abstract concept" rather than "summary of a paper". They then literally translated 抽 (chōu), which can mean "to pump" and 象 (xiàng), which can mean "elephant". I think the shame is not so much the authors' but the apparent complete lack of copy-editing and editorial supervision at the journal. Even so, I'll be sorely tempted to use "Pumping elephant" in my future publications...

Q: When is the Chinese term 商人 (‘businessman’) almost certainly not a compliment?

A: When it's used to refer to a head of state.

"Si natura negat, facit indignatio versum." ‐ Juvenal, 2nd century AD.

Often translated as "If nature denies [the ability], indignation creates the verse."

What is "cultural #translation"? In my latest blog post, I look at what cultural translators can bring to the table.

This example is for #ChineseTranslation, but I believe the idea is the same for all language pairs.

What do you think?

OpenClaw ChineseTranslation drops vital new localisation assets and tools. But without linguistic improvement specifics or asset migration paths, its real impact on projects remains vague. Hard to see this as more than routine maintenance until clearer enhancements land.
