Eleições no Reino Unido
Agora que existe uma certeza na vitória de Blair, algumas curiosidades, como este artigo no Times Online, que ensina a deliciosa arte de tradução entre politiquês e linguagem vulgar. Alguns exemplos, no inglês original:
10pm: EXIT POLL POINTS TO LANDSLIDE LABOUR WIN
Labour: “We’re not counting any chickens yet because strange things can happen. But if these figures are right, the country has made a decision to move fowards rather than back to the nasty and divisive Britain represented by Michael Howard’s election campaign.”
Translation: “Wa-hey! Four more years!”
Tories: “Exit polls have been wrong before. There is only one poll that matters — the one involving real votes in real ballot boxes. We have heard a lot about opinion polls in the past few weeks but the feeling on the ground is very different.”
Translation: “We’ve lost, but hopefully Michael Ancram will take over in an hour or so to explain this disaster.”
Lib Dems: “This shows we are now the real opposition to Tony Blair’s Labour Party. People have warmed to Charles Kennedy’s laidback style.”
Translation: “I can’t believe Blair got away with it. Where’s Kennedy? He’s a useless, lazy idiot who missed the best chance we’ve had for 100 years.”
Vão lá, e leiam tudo.
