Karen Chung del Universitate National de Taiwan investigava le metaphoras
usate per differente linguas e cultuas in su nomines pro le symbolo @.
Ecce unes ex illos:

(1) Chinese mandarin: mus
(2) Danese: le trompa de un elephante
(3) Hollandese: le cauda de un simio
(4) Hungaro: un vermiculo
(5) Svedese: le pede de un catto
(6) Arabe, germano, turc: un aure
(7) Serbio: Le littera "a" folle

Isto illustra simplemente como le diverse culturas del mundo pote
classificar de manieras multo different mesmo cosas multo simple--un
condition que a vices complica enormemente le traduction inter
linguas--specialmente linguas usate per culturas multo differente inter
se!
