Implicit lies 04:58 Nov 14, 2010
I take note of the phrase "only the finest products from 100% additive-free natural tobacco".
There are many people whose world view declares that all that is created by God is good and all that is created by man is bad; that that which is "natural" is safe and that which is processed by man is dangerous. This world view is dead wrong. It is not additives in tobacco that make it dangerous, it is the tobacco itself.
The English phrase noted above has connotations that the tobacco is safe because it is natural and 100% additive free. A good translation will be able to transfer this unwritten connotation to the target language. I wonder about the ethics. |
