曼德拉追悼会手语翻译系假冒全程瞎比划

The sign language interpreter at Tuesday's memorial service in Johannesburg for Nelson Mandela may have appeared to have been translating spoken words into gestures during the four hours he appeared on television screens around the world, but he was a fake, observers said Wednesday.

在周二于南非约翰尼斯堡举行的曼德拉官方追悼会上有一位手语翻译，看起来似乎是在将各位政要的演讲翻译成手语。曼德拉官方追悼会时长四小时，全世界都可以在电视屏幕上看见他的身影。但周三有人揭发，这位手语翻译是假冒的。

"The so-called 'interpreter' ... at FNB stadium has been dubbed the 'fake interpreter' and the deaf community is in outrage," said Bruno Druchen, national director of the Deaf Federation of South Africa (DeafSA), in a statement.

南非失聪者协会的官员布鲁诺发表声明，称“在足球城体育场上举行的曼德拉追悼会期间，所谓的‘手语翻译’是一个‘假冒翻译’，他的行为使失聪人士非常义愤。”

"He is not known by the Deaf Community in South Africa nor by the South African Sign Language interpreters working in the field."

“南非失聪人士社团和南非手语翻译界都不知道这个人。”

The man showed no facial expressions, which are key in South African sign language, and his hand signals were meaningless, Druchen said. "It is a total mockery of the language," he added.
