German > English: Book on nordic-germanic mythology, ca. 190,000 words
- the subject is a book on nordic-germanic mythology, the old gods, concepts nad beliefs
- roughly 190.000 words but with often repeating names for mythological figures, places etc.
- Some of the words require context-sensitive translation (for example the german word "Geist" can mean "ghost", "spirit", "wraith" or for example "specter" in english but just one of these is the correct translation for the context)
Example of text:
Hyndla, die als rein literarische Gestalt betrachtet werden darf, verfügt, wie die meisten Riesen, über ein beachtliches Alter, da sie angibt, einige der von ihr aufgezählten Personen noch selbst gekannt zu haben. So ist die Riesin zu den (im 14. Jh. durch das Christentum schon vielfach dämonisierten) weisen Frauen zu rechnen, die sich durch Kräuterwissen und ihre Zauberei oft zu helfen wussten.
Specialization required
