Söker en "sanity check" från en modersmålstalare för ett slutfört översättningsprojekt (Alternatywy 4)

Hej!

Jag har precis färdigställt en översättning av undertexter till den polska kultserien "Alternatywy 4" till svenska. Det har varit ett långt och roligt projekt, men eftersom svenska inte är mitt modersmål är jag lite osäker på "känslan" i språket.

Texten är alltså helt klar, men jag letar efter en modersmålstalare som skulle vilja kasta ett öga på några valda delar. Jag vill helt enkelt försäkra mig om att det inte låter onaturligt, "klumpigt" eller direkt fel i öronen på en svensk.

Varför jag ber om hjälp:

  • Översättningen är redan gjord, så jag letar inte efter någon som gör jobbet åt mig.
  • Jag vill bara veta om flödet i språket fungerar och om humorn översätts på ett naturligt sätt.
  • Det är ett ideellt hobbyprojekt för att sprida polsk filmhistoria.

Om du har lite tid över för att ge mig en snabb feedback på om det "låter okej" eller om det finns något som sticker ut som helt galet, skriv gärna en kommentar eller skicka ett DM!

Tack på förhand!

My flag redesign for Yugoslavia, if it were still around today and decided to get rid of Communist symbolism.

I've decided to redesign the flag of Yugoslavia, but if it was still around today and decided to ditch the Socialist star.

So, the flag features the Yugoslav tricolour with a blue coat of arms in the middle.

The coat of arms features a torch flame in the middle (taken from the Yugoslav coat of arms, which featured a torch flame in the middle), with 6 points for the 6 republics.

In the inner flame is a white flame with 4 points, for the 4 mountain ranges Yugoslavia shares, from the Slovenian alps to the Dinarides in southern Yugoslavia.

Thoughts?

I wrote a book about Yugoslav weapons

Yesterday, the publisher announced my first serious book: "From Balkans to Babylon: Zastava AKs of Yugoslavia, Serbia, and Iraq". Growing up, I read books about war in Yugoslavia, collected military uniforms, but there wasn't much to read about weapons in Yugoslavia.

Many years passed, but still, there were no books in English on that topic. So I decided to write one, learned the language, spent three years conducting research, and published a book in which I discuss Yugoslav weapons history as well as my personal experience repairing those weapons in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia.

Does anyone know anything about the factory Ezerka Ohrid Yugoslavia?

I tried googling and didn't find anything. I saw someone selling lamps by this company and I wonder which year they're from.

How many of you have heard of Viktor Novak, a Croatian historian, former priest, antifascist and author of the most complete book on the influence of Roman Catholic Church in Yugoslavia - "Magnum Crimen - half a century of clericalism"?

He first became known for his work in Rome on Roman calligraphy, but would afterwards become a chair of auxiliary historic sciences at University of Zagreb, where he would write about history of South Slavic people. Hated by Croatian nationalists of the time for his balanced approach towards history of South Slavs and rejection of racial analysis that pervaded the academy at the time (rooted in German academic tradition), he would eventually be forced to leave for Belgrade where he would teach Yugoslav History.

There, he would write on history of Yugoslav movement, Strossmayer, Rački etc, but would also start researching clerical nationalism (whose followers would go on to murder hundreds of thousands of people), and influence of Catholic Church in general on it's development.

This drew ire of Catholic Church, which would exert significant pressure on Nazi authorities to arrest him and destroy his work, and because of this, he was among the first people arrested and sent to Banjica concentration camp, and the nazi authorities also attempted to destroy the manuscripts.

This would ultimately fail, and his work Magnum Crimen (great crime) - half a century of clericalism in Croatia would be published in 1948. to high acclaim, reinforced with new material gathered during and after the war.

To this day, Magnum Crimen is the most complete work on the topic of Roman Catholic Church and it's political influence in this region, and is still something Roman Catholic Church tries to hide was ever written, going as far as to make a movie with same name about sacrifice of Nazi soldiers to obfuscate the book from search engines.

Apart from earning him a spot in a concentration camp, the book was immediately placed on Index librorum prohibitorum, a list of books banned by the Church (Mein Kampf never found it's way to the list, even after Hitler shot himself in a bunker).

After publishing his work, he would write one of the most respected works on Latin paleography, and would joined Academy of Sciences as co-founder and head of Institute of History.

Cultural Project in Sarajevo. Trying to find those people after all those years

hi guys, I'm carrying out a very large and complex cultural project in Sarajevo.
In summary - for anyone who wants more information I will be happy to give it to them - I would have a great need to find out who the people portrayed in these photos from the siege period are, or to contact their relatives. Do you think it's possible to help me?

I will also go to other forums, but I'm waiting for the posts to be validated. A thousand thanks!! I'm posting one at a time to try not to cause too much confusion, thanks.

Zagreb Yugoslavia (now Crotia) travel pamphlet from the '80s

As a child, I got to see Zagreb while it was still part of Yugoslavia, before Croatia became independent. I recently digitized and uploaded a pamphlet from that era to the Internet Archive because I think even small pieces of everyday history are worth preserving.

Found family items

I found (Los Angeles) a huge box full of old family post cards, pictures and books. My neighbor passed away and the landlord put all his belongings on the curb. I saved them because I felt they might be significant in some way…anyone able to transcribe these or give info on them? historical context? Their naturalization cards from 1930s are also in this album.

Hi everyone, I am an indie developer making a narrative RPG set in a country inspired by Yugoslavia. For my soundtrack, I wanted to incorporate elements of Yugoslav folk music and revolutionary songs.

I am wondering whether anyone has good resources where I could find recordings that are in the public domain that I could use. Or any suggestions for good songs to use in the project or use as reference for commissioning work.

Thanks!

Zbogom raja

Ovaj reddit je kao i svi drugi rediti sa podrucja bivse Juogslavije invadiran srpskim trollovima i bottovima, i nemoguce je imati ikakvu konverzaciju bez njihovog sranja, pa nije vrijedno biti clan. Vi kojima nije mrsko njihovog sranja gledati i sa njima se prepravljati sretno vam.

A vama ljudima dobre volje, pozdrav!
