Description of TV series
I am translating information about TV programs / TV guides and need a good term for 'rogue' in Danish - does anyone have a suggestion?
Here are a few examples:
In the fourth season premiere, x and x go on a rogue globe-spanning mission to find x's cousin.
After their first real fight, x avoids x by going on a rogue mission that leads him to his cousin.
x's secrets are threatened, leading x to set off on a rogue mission.

Selected
tage ud på en vild jagt
Clearly one of the many missing words in Danish. Jagt could be replaced by eftersøgning, but it's just less catchy, and it depends a bit on the purpose of finding that person.
Alternatively, you could try something longer, such as "X blæser reglerne/normerne/procedurerne/... et stykke og tager ud at lede efter Y på sin helt egen måde uden at tage smålige hensyn..." osv.

This looks very good - thank you! |

Thanks. I think something long is the only way to truly match the meaning of original, given the limited Danish vocabulary next to English (or French).

Bare et forslag mere - for du støder måske også på problemet i andre sammenhænge.
