I love languages. Their nuances intrigue me.
I never cease to be amazed by Chinese. I am working with a group of college students on their senior thesis which is comparing two different translations of the same movie. The choices a translator makes are just so interesting!
From a different slant, I often can learn a lot about Chinese from the mistakes made in English when someone attempts to translate.
So, what can we learn about the Hebrew language from this mistake someone made in translation?
