Nigga you've already bought it why are you asking now?

TRANSLATION
LAUGHABLE
SPANISH IS EASY

Why would you read something translated by the lead singer of anal cunt?

Does it matter my man? I always buy a shitty translation first so I can enjoy the good translation even better and pick apart why one translation works and the other doesnt

I don't know if this is bait, but it will take you at least 1 year studying Spanish for understanding the writing style of Cervantes.

Im not learning Spanish just to read a book. Just wondering how this translation stacks up against Grossman's

>«La libertad es uno de los más preciosos dones que a los hombres dieron los cielos; con ella no pueden igualarse los tesoros que encierran la tierra y el mar: por la libertad, así como por la honra, se puede y debe aventurar la vida».

Yeah putnam is top tier

You did good Frankie. GOAT translation. Now clean your fingernails, I almost gagged.

Why the fuck wouldn't you?

This book is a thousand pages


Why should one read it?

This post is ten words.

Why should one read it?

Because it takes a second to read

Whereas finishing a 1100 page book would take a significant amount of one's time, why is this book so worthy of that?

I'm not American so why would I want to learn Spanish?

one should read something because it is short
:thinking:

>there's no difference between 1 second and 400,000 seconds
:common sense:

>you should only read something if it doesn't take you long to finish it
:plebbit:

I had no idea this gentleman translated the works of Cervantes.

It's a fucking classic for a reason you god damn pleb. Edmond Dantes is one of the greatest literary heroes who fucks up some hating ass niggas.
