| Jan 21, 2023 at 8:07 | comment | added | Martin Bonner supports Monica | @John That's not right. If you write something in English, and I translate it into German (unlikely, my German isn't good enough) distributing my translation would be a violation of your copyright. The resulting work has both your copyright, and my copyright. | |

But if you want to not end up in the middle of a lawsuit, it's probably best to avoid using those things in your own works, or at least tread carefully. | |
