The reverse are not that good. Other languages, I do not know. German to English is readable, the result makes sense, but I don't know if they are accurate. ~15 years ago German to English was horrible. ... >> >> I have an old collection of novels by Jules Verne in two big tomes, >> using the ink drawings of the originals.

A joke explained is never as funny as a joke understood. Certainly. Reading in the original language is the best experience, although one may still not understand some things because they are cultural. So a note by the translator is nice to have. Better than nothing. Means the translator was well paid, too. -- Cheers, Carlos. ES🇪🇸, EU🇪🇺;
