Föcked Translation (414): I posted to a light-hearted blog called Fucked Translation over on Blogger from 2007 to 2016, when I was often in Barcelona. Its original subtitle was "What happens when Spanish institutions and businesses give translation contracts to relatives or to some guy in a bar who once went to London and only charges 0.05€/word." I never actually did much Spanish-English translation (most of my work is from Dutch, French and German) but I was intrigued and amused by the hubristic Spanish belief, then common, that nepotism and quality went hand in hand, and by the nemeses that inevitably followed.

  1. "…we have a wide range of ready made tours perfect for those of you who wanty something extra special. "

    Have you got something as goody as that then Baldiey?

  2. "Wanty something extra special" is surely out of a banned anti-Chinese joke. I like "Baldiey" – it's close enough for me to "Hawkeye". Did that answer your question?
