@MultoGhost I like that quote! Thanks for sharing it. A long time ago, I did translations of parts of Song of Songs and Litore's words so fit that experience. Now, I work mostly as a cotranslator, from classical Persian--which is a longish story--and, newly, just in the last couple of years, from Catalan. It's a different experience than working in a language where I am literate and (at least back then) relatively fluent, but it's still a matter of compromise.
