Amate Paper - The Ancient Mexican Tradition

The tiny Mexican village of San Pablito has been making amate bark paper for centuries. When the Spanish banned the paper in Mexico because it was being used for magic and witchcraft, the remote town was one of the few places to preserve the traditional craft.

Why is the english translation so different than what the woman is actually saying!?

[@lindseygutierrez9256]

The translation is totally inaccurate and does nothing to transmit the actual message the lady was saying. She was speaking about transitional healing practices and the translation mentioned nothing of that.

[@emiliothechicano3231]

It was way off. They need a new transcriber

[@sonianunez5854]

The translation from Spanish to English is way off. The woman in the video is explaining the meaning of the work and how some tie into a belief of folk healers. Good video but terrible translation

[@ln14517]

The translation didn’t match at all.

[@liaml8263]

Translation sucks

[@danielvibez4000]

The craft is nice but she has an attitude. I don't want to buy from her. It doesn't matter if it's hard work you should still be happy no matter what.

[@jackiebunting4000]

When does she complain? She's speaking matter-of-factly.

[@Streamingfriendlyunitshifter]

No ones asking you to buy from her tho. And your ego made that up
