Mutt & Jeff by Bud Fisher for August 03, 2018

How strange! Someone complained bout the strip being in Spanish. I translated it, and now both comments disappeared.

By the way, Jeff tells Mutt he’s using the rod to find his lost golf ball. Mutt tells him such rods are used for finding water, not golf balls. But of course Jeff finds the ball.

? Que ?

Oddly for humor, it’s just as funny in both languages

I never knew they spoke Spanish.

Risas.

In the Spanish-speaking countries where I lived, “estupido” was a lot stronger — and more insulting word — than even stupid in English. It’s almost obscene in many areas. Instead, they use “tonto” or in Costa Rica, “chapo.”

It’s all Greek to me!!

Sprichst du Deutsch?

No translation needed.

This gives credence to the comments yesterday about the strip being translated into Spanish and then back into English, and the humor getting lost in between.

Gringos locos

Wait till Trump hears about this!

Hey what the……………..

Now Spanish is overtaking retroactively. HELP!!
