A /lit/ redpill: 90% of translations are absolute shit due to the incompetence of translators, and the remainder are still defective due to the nature of translation.

The solution is a lifelong commitment to language learning, which includes a refinement of one's own native language(s). What are you waiting for, /lit/? Go learn French now.

Why would I learn to speak French when the French don't even write about great journeys across mountains and beautiful landscapes? They just write about gay city-life. No thanks.

Incorrect. They mastered that stuff in the medieval age. See >>17804807.

You need an edition with the original text to the side, so you can check. You can't learn every language, but you can have a level of competence that allows you to understand if the translator is bullshitting you or not. Think of it like watching animé with subs.

true /lit/ redpill: if you yourself are truly literary, everything you read becomes literary in your eyes. but none of you fags come anywhere close. so you bitch about translations.
