Title: Swaziland
Context: About 75% of the population is employed in subsistence agriculture upon Swazi Nation Land (SNL). In contrast with the commercial farms, Swazi Nation Land suffers from low productivity and investment. This dual nature of the Swazi economy, with high productivity in textile manufacturing and in the industrialised agricultural TDLs on the one hand, and declining productivity subsistence agriculture (on SNL) on the other, may well explain the country's overall low growth, high inequality and unemployment.

Title: Swaziland
Context: Economic growth in Swaziland has lagged behind that of its neighbours. Real GDP growth since 2001 has averaged 2.8%, nearly 2 percentage points lower than growth in other Southern African Customs Union (SACU) member countries. Low agricultural productivity in the SNLs, repeated droughts, the devastating effect of HIV/AIDS and an overly large and inefficient government sector are likely contributing factors. Swaziland's public finances deteriorated in the late 1990s following sizeable surpluses a decade earlier. A combination of declining revenues and increased spending led to significant budget deficits.

question: What has the Real growth in GDP since 2001 in Swaziland in percentage? 

answer: 2.8%

question: When did the public finances in Swaziland decline? 

answer: the late 1990s

question: What led to Swazi budget cuts? 

answer: declining revenues and increased spending
Title: Swaziland
Context: The considerable spending did not lead to more growth and did not benefit the poor. Much of the increased spending has gone to current expenditures related to wages, transfers, and subsidies. The wage bill today constitutes over 15% of GDP and 55% of total public spending; these are some of the highest levels on the African continent. The recent rapid growth in SACU revenues has, however, reversed the fiscal situation, and a sizeable surplus was recorded since 2006. SACU revenues today account for over 60% of total government revenues. On the positive side, the external debt burden has declined markedly over the last 20 years, and domestic debt is almost negligible; external debt as a percent of GDP was less than 20% in 2006.

Context: The Sangoma is a traditional diviner chosen by the ancestors of that particular family. The training of the Sangoma is called "kwetfwasa". At the end of the training, a graduation ceremony takes place where all the local sangoma come together for feasting and dancing.

Title: Translation
Context: The English word "translation" derives from the Latin translatio (which itself comes from trans- and from fero, the supine form of which is latum—together meaning "a carrying across" or "a bringing across"). The modern Romance languages use equivalents of the English term "translation" that are derived from that same Latin source or from the alternative Latin traducere ("to lead across" or "to bring across"). The Slavic and Germanic languages (except in the case of the Dutch equivalent, "vertaling"—a "re-language-ing") likewise use calques of these Latin sources.

question: What Latin word does the English word translation come from? 

answer: translatio

question: What languages use equivalents of the English term "translation" that come from the same Latin source? 

answer: Romance

question: What does Latin's traducere mean in English? 

answer: "to lead across"

question: Slavic and Germanic languages also use a similar loanword from what source? 

answer: Latin

question: What does the Dutch word "vertaling" roughly translate to? 

answer: "re-language-ing"
Title: Translation
Context: Despite occasional theoretical diversity, the actual practice of translation has hardly changed since antiquity. Except for some extreme metaphrasers in the early Christian period and the Middle Ages, and adapters in various periods (especially pre-Classical Rome, and the 18th century), translators have generally shown prudent flexibility in seeking equivalents — "literal" where possible, paraphrastic where necessary — for the original meaning and other crucial "values" (e.g., style, verse form, concordance with musical accompaniment or, in films, with speech articulatory movements) as determined from context.

question: How much has translation changed since antiquity? 

answer: hardly

question: What have general been prudent about? 

answer: seeking equivalents

question: For crucial values, what type of values do translators use where possible? 

answer: literal

question: What kind of diversity has the practice of translation had? 

answer: theoretical

question: When were there some extreme metaphrasers? 

answer: early Christian period and the Middle Ages
Title: Translation
Context: In general, translators have sought to preserve the context itself by reproducing the original order of sememes, and hence word order — when necessary, reinterpreting the actual grammatical structure, for example, by shifting from active to passive voice, or vice versa. The grammatical differences between "fixed-word-order" languages (e.g. English, French, German) and "free-word-order" languages (e.g., Greek, Latin, Polish, Russian) have been no impediment in this regard. The particular syntax (sentence-structure) characteristics of a text's source language are adjusted to the syntactic requirements of the target language.

question: What have translators tried to preserve? 

answer: context itself

question: How do translators preserve context? 

answer: reproducing the original order of sememes

question: What is it sometimes necessary to reinterpret when translating? 

answer: grammatical structure

question: What is the active voice sometimes shifted to when needed? 

answer: passive

question: What are the syntax characteristics of a text's source language adjusted to for a target language? 

answer: syntactic requirements
Title: Translation
Context: Generally, the greater the contact and exchange that have existed between two languages, or between those languages and a third one, the greater is the ratio of metaphrase to paraphrase that may be used in translating among them. However, due to shifts in ecological niches of words, a common etymology is sometimes misleading as a guide to current meaning in one or the other language. For example, the English actual should not be confused with the cognate French actuel ("present", "current"), the Polish aktualny ("present", "current," "topical," "timely," "feasible"), the Swedish aktuell ("topical", "presently of importance"), the Russian актуальный ("urgent", "topical") or the Dutch actueel.

question: A greater ratio of metaphrase to paraphrase can be used translating when there as been greater what between languages? 

answer: contact and exchange

question: What is a common etymology sometimes misleading as? 

answer: guide to current meaning

question: What does the French "actuel" mean in English? 

answer: present

question: How would you convey that something is "presently of importance" in Swedish? 

answer: aktuell

question: To indicate something is feasible in Polish, what word could be used? 

answer: aktualny
Title: Translation
Context: The translator's role as a bridge for "carrying across" values between cultures has been discussed at least since Terence, the 2nd-century-BCE Roman adapter of Greek comedies. The translator's role is, however, by no means a passive, mechanical one, and so has also been compared to that of an artist. The main ground seems to be the concept of parallel creation found in critics such as Cicero. Dryden observed that "Translation is a type of drawing after life..." Comparison of the translator with a musician or actor goes back at least to Samuel Johnson’s remark about Alexander Pope playing Homer on a flageolet, while Homer himself used a bassoon.

question: How long has a translator's part in bridging values between cultures been discussed? 

answer: at least since Terence
