<< Translation is an art, not a science, nicht wahr?? >>


As Frau Nisam, my HS German teacher taught us regarding translations and
women: "Sind sie schoen, sind sie nicht Treu; sind sie Treu, sind sie nicht
schoen."  What was funny in the olden days turns out to be sexist racist
piggism now, even if it did come from a female personage.  Who later went to
the loony bin.
