Bizarre that you would go to a Spanish translation (A translation note) Tom - 27/11/2010 04:05:28 PM 813 Views
Not really, when that's the only complete translation available in a language I read Larry - 27/11/2010 06:54:18 PM 874 Views
It's an interesting discussion about that title... "disdain" is indeed somewhat weak. Legolas - 27/11/2010 06:35:14 PM 882 Views
When I have time later tonight, I'll translate the relevant passage near the end of the book Larry - 27/11/2010 06:57:23 PM 901 Views

The main reason why I lean toward "hatred" is later on Larry - 27/11/2010 09:43:43 PM 907 Views
Yeah, there may be a slight difference between Czech and English meaning of the word wahooka - 28/11/2010 10:49:23 AM 883 Views
Makes sense to me Larry - 28/11/2010 07:13:08 PM 952 Views
Now for that passage near the end of the book I said I'd post Larry - 28/11/2010 02:35:38 AM 875 Views
Hm. I'd actually say it makes me more inclined to think "contempt" is right after all. Legolas - 28/11/2010 10:50:09 AM 953 Views
I didn't quote what happened immediately afterward, as that is a major spoiler Larry - 28/11/2010 07:16:39 PM 841 Views

I find it funny that all the discussion in the thread is about the best translation of the title. Stephen - 28/11/2010 10:17:44 PM 823 Views
Actually, it also plays a key role in the action of this book Larry - 29/11/2010 12:47:19 AM 973 Views
Oh, I'm just surprised one word can be that important Stephen - 29/11/2010 01:03:48 PM 769 Views
Time of Contempt is closest to original meaning Ellestra - 28/11/2010 11:42:56 PM 936 Views
Perhaps, but there's been a weakening of "contempt" in English over the past few generations Larry - 28/11/2010 11:55:16 PM 969 Views

True, to a large extent at least Larry - 29/11/2010 04:57:00 AM 1200 Views
You made me want to go and reread this again Ellestra - 29/11/2010 12:07:46 AM 929 Views

Still, seeing as many as six consonants together can be intimidating for some of us Larry - 29/11/2010 11:37:22 PM 981 Views

I refuse to give the Germans credit when it comes to language and grammar issues! Larry - 30/11/2010 03:04:30 AM 1127 Views
I don't see why; except maybe page long nouns Ellestra - 30/11/2010 04:22:37 PM 1161 Views
I dunno, some people dig saying "Machtübernahme" and "Größerdeutschland" Larry - 30/11/2010 05:53:43 PM 981 Views
Hey those are short Ellestra - 01/12/2010 03:44:42 AM 1069 Views
