Chinese term
两面人
Chinese to English
Law/Patents
Law (general)
起诉书
中共起诉别人是两面人
请问这如何翻译
美国之音把它翻译成TWO FACE
请问这个是对的吗？
所谓两面人就是说一套，做一套
saying something and doing something else or just the opposite
So I think "a two faced person", this is wrong translation, am I right?
I think it is better to use the term a double standard person.
Thanls

turncoat
既然都“起诉”了，说明恶行已经被发现，因此大可以用语气重一些的词汇。
个人觉得turncoat在这种语境下应该比较合适：
turncoat (plural turncoats): A traitor; one who turns against a previous affiliation or allegiance.
或者hypocrite也适合

double-standard person
My ex is a Canadian who lives in China and describes 两面人 as double-standard person "说一套，做一套". I believe there is no other words more accurate than this translation.
