- Comment on In the spirit of the King's Birthday 1 week ago:
IIRC william was an unusually politically savvy king.
he did his coronation on the cheap so as to ease public sentiment. and then when told “sire, the peasants are revolting”, he did not say “yes, of course”, but (eventually) put pressure on the conservatives to get the reform bill passed.

a raw translation is a bad translation, this is trying to demonstrate translation without actually translating, using just one language, which is why it fails to demonstrate much of anything.
eg:
- original: ez egy vérgeci
- raw: this is a blood cum
- translation that carries the meaning: this person is thoroughly unpleasant and mean
- idiomatic translation: he’s a fucking asshole
