RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

MODERATORS
You're right.
But also if you wanted to be a pedant you could argue that translation is not the mere act of literally converting the words from one language to another, but also concerns considering the cultural contexts of the languages and how best to convey the information such that the closest understanding is achieved. In this case you would want to avoid the linguistic connotation that exists in the target language but not the source language. So one could argue that "rednote" or possibly "red booklet" are maybe the most accurate translations.
