Talk:Literal translation

beer garden is an incorrect example
“ e.g., ‘beer garden’ from German ‘Biergarten.’” — that’s actually not a calque, but phono semantic matching as if retains the phonetic sounds. “Aleyard” would be a calque. 2601:1C2:5000:1472:D94D:40C7:4731:A8DD (talk) 11:14, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
