 German  English

Dass keine Schauspieler auf der Bühne stehen, sondern Menschen, die von ihrem eigenen Leben erzählen, lauter Spezialisten der Wirklichkeit, macht das alles nicht weniger irritierend. [G] The fact that there are no actors on stage, but people - nothing but specialists of real life - recounting stories from their own lives, does not make the whole thing any less off-putting.

Er trifft - was recht abschreckend sein kann - auf eine eingeschworene Kennergemeinde, die nicht nur das Repertoire kennt, sondern auch die unterschiedlichsten Interpretationen. [G] He comes up against a sworn community of aficionados, who not only know the repertoire but also the most diverse interpretations - which can be really off-putting.

The example sentences [G] were kindly provided by the Goethe Institute.
