@kaito02 I once asked a translator what they did if what they were told to translate was a bit wrong, or complete bollocks, or even outright lies.
Translate it accurately with a straight face, they said, that's the job.

@kaito02 OK, so there was some context to this.
I wasn't quite sure whether I believed what a Japanese politician was telling me through this (English) interpreter. So later on I asked the interpreter this question ... and they really weren't giving anything away. π€£
