- notjulianjaynes 3y agoThere's a disclaimer about the stories being machine translated, but I'd still like to know how "Elon Musk" became "Earon Mask."[1] [1] https://gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20230529-elon-musk-cut-twitter-spaces-team-failed/ https://gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20230529-elon-musk-cut-twit...
- jezzamon 3y agoJapanese is limited in what phonetic sounds can be written, so I'm guessing that's just a direct translation of what his name becomes in Japanese
- notjulianjaynes 3y agoAh, yes that makes sense. I wasn't considering that the translation would have been from a completely different alphabet.
