странный перевод слова nummy

[genia1991]

yum yum = ням - ням
или yummy вкусный
nummy - ??

в некоторых местах написано что nummy = yummy только это вариация вроде как устаревшего слова yummy
как правильно можно перевести слово nummy? а то захожу в словарь reverso context а он вообще переводит его как придурок . Так и должно быть ? :)

почему так происходит?

[tourist]

nummy так маленькие дети произносят yummy
придурок/идиот = dummy

[Yety]

почему так происходит?

Потому что "нь" произнести проще, чем "й" - съезжает). Вот и в русском - "Ням-Ням".

[Dragon27]

А в английском загребущее Nom Nom.

nummy так маленькие дети произносят yummy

Ну, может где-то в местечковом (подростковом подозреваю) слэнге nummy может быть и "придурок".
Если Urban dictionary посмотреть, то "придурка" там нет, зато есть разное-другое, например 2, 4 и 5 (стиль написания и примеры как-бы намекают на контингент). Оттуда до придурка, тупачка, дебилушки, оленя и прочего - полшага в общем-то.

Но такое, думаю, настолько локально и переменчиво, что всерьез рассматривать это значение смысла нет.

Теоретически (очень теоретически, конечно) возможно, что и у нас где-то когда-то называли тупеньких персонажей/маменькиных сынков/<подставить что угодно> ням-нямами, но мы пребываем в блаженном неведении.

you are right
we can stretch it just enough to mean stupid
some quick research yields the following:
nummy shortened form of numbskull. (FWIW)
numbskull = idiot

but what confused genia1991, in the first place
was the fact that searching for nummy in reverso context leads to dummy ..
so yes

всерьез рассматривать это значение смысла нет

[diggerzz]

was the fact that searching for nummy in reverso context

Personally, I steer clear of this website.
IMHO, a machine translation is just a machine translation for now.
But, in ten, or maybe even five, years, we'll see.

[Yety]

just a machine translation for now.

Reverso Context is not MT, or Linguee/Glosbe, for that matter. It's a service designed to bring together parallel texts in multiple languages. It's nothing more than a collection of human translated parallel texts, albeit individual sentences.

СпойлерПоказать

Reverso Context is an online and mobile application combining big data from large multilingual corpora to allow users to search for translations in context.[10][11] These texts are sourced mainly from films, books, and governmental documents, allowing users to see idiomatic usages of translations as well as synonyms and voice output.

I don't trust this site anyway. Too raw, too unpolished.

Just tried and search of "nummy".
Reverso changes the query to "dummy" all the time.
Don't know how would it be in English, so
Нас на...ли, расходимся.

Reverso Context is not MT

from the same wiki article:

Since its founding Reverso has provided machine translation tools for automated translation of texts in various languages, including neural machine translation.

but even if Reverso is a human edited translation,
it's still a wiki, and as such
it has the same limited value as, say, multitran:
helpful, but often unreliable ...

[Yety]

I don't trust this site anyway

I prefer the trust-but-verify approach. =)

Reverso Context is not all the umbrella brand Reverso is about. Reverso may be dabbling with MT somewhere, but Reverso CONTEXT is not MT - it's corpora based parallel texts.

[diggerzz]

I prefer the trust-but-verify approach. =)

My first verification was rather disappointing, as you can see. :)

Your experience might have been traumatic, I see, but what you do is just throw the baby with the bathwater on the grounds that it's no longer drinkable.

[diggerzz]

you're just throwing the baby with the bathwater

Rather just prefer for the baby to be born; then we'll see.

[Yety]

prefer for baby to be born; then we'll see

The baby is born all right and growing up. You are expecting the baby to have survived all the infant diseases and developed adult immunity before you agree to say 'happy birthday'.

Sure, I'm not so grown up myself to be able of picking right of wrong of the pile of... everything.
Just don't want to depend on the baby. Gladly let do all the beta-testing to all who'd want to do that.

[Dragon27]

Just tried and search of "nummy".
Reverso changes the query to "dummy" all the time.

Which it warns you about. And even allows you to change the search query back to "nummy" with one click - it's no different than Google in that regard.

[diggerzz]

Which it warns you about.

It doesn't. Cant't see any options similar to Google.
nummy->click search->dummy
Maybe one has to sign up for more options or Reverso just doesn't like me because of my badmouthing. :)

[Dragon27]

I can clearly see the message

Results for "dummy". The original search was nummy.

in my search results (with the word nummy hyperlinked - clicking on it will produce the results of my original search query).

No, I'm not registered on that site either.

[diggerzz]

I can clearly see the message

Just tried through Tor (changing the browser is often a very good move in such situations) and that did the job.
But anyway there were only two results and the both were with the word nummy-nummy.
In the first example nummy-nummy was translated as ням-ням, in the second one as вкусненький-вкусненький.
