Summary

Description

2012年10月26日、長野県長野市戸隠(とがくし)にある鏡池の紅葉。 雲間から出た太陽に照らされた瞬間、紅葉が鮮やかに輝いていました。

以前、白樺湖周辺で車内から交通案内標識を見ていると、そこに「女神湖 ~km」という表記と、その下に「Megamiko-lake ~km」と英語表記がありました。

“Lake”と同じ意味の”湖”が名前の中に入っていても敢えてMegamiko-lakeと書く。

その大胆な翻訳に訳者の思い切りの良さを感じました。


10/26/2012, Kagamiike-pond, Togakushi, Nagano city, Nagano Prefecture, Japan Even though it was pretty cloudy, the sun came out. It was very beautiful!

The other day, when I was in a car I saw a traffic sign saying “–km to Megamiko-lake”. In Japanese Megamiko means “Lake Megami”, so Megamiko-lake means “Lake Lake Megami”. So it sounds strange for Japanese, but I think it is well coordinated and kinda cute.
