Polish term or phrase: doszlusowali, nagniotkow na mozgu
Swoja recenzje z filmu nazwalem "Sluchajcie glosu mlodych", bo wlasnie mlodzi do mlodych mowili w ten sposob. Inaczej niz ci przedwojenni filmowcy, ktorzy potem doszlusowali, a ktorzy niebeardzo umieli sie wyzwolic z tych przedwojennych nagniotkow na mozgu.

agree  lim0nka: chyba tak, bo jak się przetłumaczy te nagniotki dosłownie, wyjdzie jakiś koszmarek ;)

neutral  pidzej: on the other hand: uważam że takiego bełkotu nie można za dobrze tłumaczyć bo czytelnik pomyśli niesłusznie że mówca był trzeźwy

agree  Hanna Burdon: "Caught up" jest OK, a to drugie - może "got stuck in the pre-war thinking rut"? Moim zdaniem o to chodzi, chociaż oczywi¶cie autor oryginału jest tak elokwentny, że interpretować jego wypowiedĽ można dowolnie...

disagree  Hanna Burdon: IMHO z oryginału nie wynika, że ci starsi "became involved so that they could get the advantages themselves" (Cambridge). Wersja Doroty jest bezpieczniejsza.
