I prefer Smollett, though it's mostly just a tarted up transcription of previous translations (but tarted up in an appealing way.) Grossman is the worst--there are glaring errors or at least highly inapposite choices in her translations of Golden Age Spanish poetry. It almost makes one wonder whether she has the proper reference materials. Nonetheless, I can see how she's popular with people used to reading contemporary internet journalism, blogs etc.

Anon, está escrito como la mierda. Los elementos sintáxicos estan colocados literalmente de manera invertida.
>Fiesta tiene México
Quiere decir que México tiene fiestas? (Celebraciones) o es una mala traducción de "party"?
>España tiene siesta
Supongo que se refiere a que España tiene la tradición de tomar una siesta, esto basándome en pic related porque no tiene ninguna relación con la afirmación anterior.

The problem is that Spaniards stay at work until like 8 or 9 in the evening, rather than just working in a more focused manner and going home before 4 like in Northern European cunts.
