4 +4 | Brown's Mighty Mite camp oven |
|
Brown's Mighty Mite camp oven Explanation: Whether it is fictional or really existed, it is clearly meant to be a brand name. It should therefore be treated in translation as you would treat a brand name. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2004-03-16 17:44:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In this case, maybe a translation for the name of the character, but some explanation relating it to the name of the oven. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 39 mins (2004-03-16 19:09:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- E.g. have his mother say, \"They call you briciolo possente, you know, like the Mighty Mite stoves, because that\'s what it means.\" The details of how this is worked into the story, of course depend on the existing dialogue in the story. |
