grim ælling

»Da Rigoletto blev født, var han en grim ælling. En meget grim ælling. Men med årerne og en masse arbejde, er han blevet til en smuk svane.

2017, Vivi Sjøner, Prinsesse Natalie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, Mit liv med heste, Lindhardt og Ringhof, →ISBN:

"When Rigoletto was born, he was an ugly duckling. A very ugly duckling. But with years and a lot of work, he has become a beautiful swan.

Men alligevel forandrede DEF sig fra at være en grim ælling til en flot svane.

2005, Erland Kolding Nielsen, Kommunikation erstatter transport: den digitale revolution i danske forskningsbiblioteker 1980-2005 : festskrift til Karl Krarup, Museum Tusculanum Press, →ISBN, page 209:

But nonetheless, DEF [Danmarks Elektroniske Forskningsbibliotek] turned from an ugly duckling to a beautiful swan.

Det gør det vigtigt, at man i de almindelige tidsskrifter også giver plads til en lidt ufærdig idé , der kan udvikle sig fra en grim ælling til en fuldbåren svane.

This makes it important that ordinary periodicals also make space for a somewhat unfinished idea that can transform from an ugly duckling to a consummate swan.

Og helten er endda ikke nogen grim ælling, der mobbes af omgivelserne. Han er en succes hos pigerne og i livet i det hele taget.

2005, Johan de Mylius, Forvandlingens pris: H.C. Andersen og hans eventyr:

And the hero isn't even an ugly duckling who is bullied by his environment. He is a success with the girls and in life in general.
