Trevor Noah Was a Victim of Fake News 

I'd be really interested to hear/see an example you might have of this. As an English speaker only, this effect is lost on me.

Suffragette the difference is HUGE

I mentioned this somewhere else, but the Daily Show have done a translation issue skit on their show with the actual translators. You should check it when you get the chance. It's called: The Translators - Interpreting Donald Trump: The Daily Show on youtube. It's a great example.

Well you could for example listen to any of his speeches with german translation over it and compare the tone of voice. Like this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Qnm-47yFC-g.html. To make it more clear what I mean here some points: 1. When Trump repeats himself "We are gonna win, win, win, win!" the translator usually just translates: "We are gonna win." 2. When he uses wrong adverbs like "bigly" or otherwise wrong grammar the translator translates it into grammatically correct german. 3. When he doesn't use coherent sentences and veers widely off what he was originally saying the translator does his or her best to transform that into somewhat coherent sentences. I could probably find and example of this and I may add one later. 4. The way Trump enunciates and pronounces some words or just his general manner of speaking is just its own kind of weird so having that replaced by a matter of fact voice german translator already makes him seem less crazy. Sorry I didn't cite any specific example. I hope you can still kind of understand what I mean. :)

Suffragette true. I recall a story from a while ago about a "dilemma" translators were having with him as to how they should translate him.

Maybe a bit too simple?

ViroCMN What, you're telling me you don't have someone you're a fan of?

Aagya Shrestha this is old almost as old as u stop it

Aagya Shrestha me too lol...I love him

If you believe the brainwash propaganda he's spewing, you're probably too simple.

Goorpijp Wessel: jealous much? :D

Goorpijp Wessel So muscles are everything well I got more than you

tio felipe lol only an ugly person would say that...

tio felipe Wow, you're like the poster boy for insecurity.

Anyone who doesn't believe his brainwash communist propaganda and doesn't think that America should surrender to globalist European banker authoritarians.

James Ironically, Trump who hates PC is translated into a sane person thanks to PC.

Woah. That is lowkey fake news lmao

Many people from other countries understand enough English to enjoy Mr. Trump speaking in his native language. 😀 So don't worry. His extraordinary personality gets across. It's just the official news that do a more PC translation.

🤣🤣🤣

This is truer than you think. I'm Moroccan, so both my parents, who speak no English, only listen to news in Arabic and French. I seriously had to sit them down and show them videos of his speeches in English, and translate word for word to them, to make them realize how incoherent (and batshit crazy) he sounds.

Here in germany it's the same. I hear one of his speeches in english and a few hours or days i see the same speech with a german speaker who 'translates' it and suddenly he sounds like every other politician. Even weirder, if they just use subtiltes, and i have to think: "Guys, we hear him. Even without understanding english you can hear, that this is not how he talks."

tmanepi Thanks

tmanepic the daily show did a special on this called interpreting donald trump i recommend watching it

Trevor is incoherent. I undersand Trump quite well.

Pearl Ooi omg YES

NBC and CBS would never allow that lol. Although I wish they'd team up and do a special on Showtime or HBO just for the hell of it.

Never say never. Who knows, if the money's good enough they may allow it

Colbert sucks. Most of his jokes are just godawful and at times you have to wait for the crowd to finish laughing for half a minute

@Mirac you suck!!!

Charlotte Smyt

If you haven’t already, listen to his audiobook. It took my love for him to a whole new level! 😍

Charlotte Smythe ....charlotte me too. I am waiting.

I think is because he is so smart 😍

Seth Myers and Trevor Noah together? Fantastic.

Edgar Arvelo. You are an idiot. No media hates God. Your faith is your private issue. Do not try to implicate people who have every right to be non-believers or agnostics. Who do you think you are? There is multitude of non-believers who contrive to make this world a better place for everyone. So enough with bigotry and insanity. You have a right to disagree, but that is just how far you can go.

he soldout antifa. e owes Jon Stewart a apoligy

He's very smart.

Pondok Indah_12310 hes good at funny

Thats why we need Trevor Noah to help us understand that the best answer is permanently dismantling America and surrendering to European globalist authoritarian bankers.

SuperNoobTroll Trust me trevor would say the best answer is an alien invasion.

@The Works then you either don't have a sense of humour or are too sensitive

Daene Luna do you know if he is a straight man? I always think about it

Speaking for all South Africans: HE'S OURSSSSSSSSSSSSS

the_dead_poet YES!!

I want this.

the_dead_poet Dammit that was such a missed opportunity

This needs to happen.

The point he made about how Trump sounds he's speaking Arabic in English to people in the Arabic speaking world was hilarious, but also terrifying. I guess it's like that for any nation, but specifically with Trump a lot of people in other democratic nations may not get how insane and dumb he is. Where do you live and how do most people there view him?

martinaee I live in turkey and here people who identify primarily as muslims usually don't like him and people who identify primarily as turks usually like him but since most people rely on translations of his speeches they think he is just another politician, they don't really get it when i tell them this guy talks like a six year old narcicist...

That's what translators are having so much problems with. Like they have the job of making the words understandable, but they also have to try to keep in the nuance and the style of speech. That's the hardest thing to do with Trump, because keeping the latter parts means it's going to be incoherent in other languages.

Sarah Rogers omg ikr???? 😍

He's got that cute little boy act wrapped up in a smart classy man ...

#NoTaste

True story.

mud duck

Joshua Marsella. Both shows are taped in NYC. The only thing live is the audience.

Joshua Marsella lol

I like to play "The Guessing Game"

Twinodoom I have already told people

🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂

frecklesandwine i find my favorite late night interviews are with Seth Meyers. He always seems genuinely interested in his guest.

I totally agree with you. It's a subtlety thing, but Seth and Trevor seem more humble, and I find them more likable than Stephen (I respect the man, but he DOES come off a tad arrogant for my taste).

Get yourself a bro that looks at you like Seth looks at Trevor.

I don't think Colbert intends to be but other people quite often find themselves in awe of him, thus the look

Yes.. omg

videomissionary Yeah, he nailed Trump’s voice pitch.

The Japanese translator Chikako Tsuruta said “He is so overconfident and yet so logically unconvincing that my interpreter friends and I often joke that if we translated his words as they are, we would end up making ourselves sound stupid.” www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2017/02/17/national/japans-interpreters-struggle-to-make-sense-of-trump-speeches/#.WbFA47KGPIU

The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, they did a skit on this already. The co-host went to the different translators and made them translate it with the nuances and craziness. You should check it out if you haven't. But yes I would Trevor and Seth to collab on it!

I found the name: The Translators - Interpreting Donald Trump: The Daily Show

Glad to know I'm not the only NewsRadio fan on here. That show was and is criminally underrated.

All that needs to be said (and the fellow fans will get this) is "bad clown making like super car racers, I would make them sweat. War war." I miss that show so much.

He's getting meaner and meaner.

@@thanaedwards9660 it's comedy he's supposed to fun of people

Creature Of the night best comment.

Everyone in the comments has a crush on him, is it because he's funny?

+mrsbrown Well, it's the combination of funny, hot, goodlooking, multilangual and wellspoken.

Tlotus Samee😂😂😂

Too bad americans we all know he's got millions of south african fan girls that he'll return to😂😂

Gavan Schultz ....no, he has it too good in america.

saja masalmeh this mad me laugh 😂

I hate that this made me laugh

I laughed way harder than I should have. Lmao still laughing. xD

Ma Ha omg hahaha

Liliya Nikolova somewhere from South East Asia 😀

ParkSiQa china?

ParkSiQa Is it Singapore? PM Lee?

Greentiger_420 China is East Asia, not Southeast.
