> but do you know anything about how that worked? Surely in another language, the form of the lips while speaking is different It will be different but unless you read lips or pay close attention you won't notice it (too much). IIRC dub translators try to match end vowels of sentences. > not to mention the length of sentences A good adaptation will account for that and translate for matching durations. > double entendres that are impossible to translate That's not a problem unique to dubbing. When a joke is impossible to translate it isn't. Good translators will compensate for dropped jokes by adding other jokes when possible. Translated comedy is rarely good.
