RE: Keyword of the Week: Dancer / Schlüsselwort der Woche: Tänzer
Nah, I get it. For me English has the advantage of me not knowing it well enough to be super self-conscious. Thinking I'm about it, I'm not sure if it makes sense. I guess switching around like you say could give an interesting dynamic, because you're forced to rewrite some stuff instead of clinging to words and phrases.
Heard "kill your babies" in context of writing. Maybe killing babies is easier using a foreign language. Metaphorically speaking. Or is that an anology? I don't know the difference.
I think the metaphor is a good one. And the idea is interesting; I'll give it some thought.
