Ordret eller mundret oversættelse? Det klassiske dilemma, som enhver oversætter konfronteres med, er spørgsmålet om, hvilket sprog han eller hun vil være mest loyal over for: det sprog, der oversættes fra (kildesproget) eller det sprog, der oversættes til (målsproget).

2008, Christian Halvgaard, Kilde eller kanon?: kampen om Den danske Bibel, Museum Tusculanum Press, →ISBN, page 71:

Literal or natural translation? The classical dilemma which each translator must confront is the question of which language he or she will be most loyal to: the language from which translation is being done (the source language) or the language to which translation is being done (the destination language).

Selv om sprogets regler i almindelighed ikke er til at spøge med, er der selvfølgelig tilfælde, hvor noget er acceptabelt skønt mindre mundret.

2003, Anders Toftgaard, Nationale spejlinger: tendenser in ny dansk film, Museum Tusculanum Press, →ISBN, page 212:

Although the rules of language are not in general fit to joke around with, there are of course cases, where something is acceptable, although less natural.

Især citaterne burde være kortere og i et mere flydende og mundret sprog. Her er sproget tungt og præget af passiver og verbalsubstantiver.

year unknown, Amalie Lyhne, Skriftlig formidling for DJØF'ere, Samfundslitteratur →ISBN, page 81

The quotes in particular ought to be shorter, and expressed in a more flowing, natural language. Here, the language is heavy, and characterized by passives and verbal nouns.
