The often-cited example of the different possible translations into English of the Japanese word mokusatsu, which led to a major

misunderstanding between the Japanese and the Allies during World War II, is an example of what translation problem?
English

Answer:

D. vocabulary equivalence

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

A. conceptual equivalence

B. experiential equivalence

C. idiomatic equivalence

D. vocabulary equivalence

This is an example of the problem of vocabulary equivalence. Languages are not built in the same way, and therefore, we do not always have an equivalent word in English to translate every word of a foreign language. In this example, the word "mokusatsu" was not exactly equal to any word in English. Therefore, the translator is tasked with having to find a word in English that most closely resembles it. The focus of the translator should be on the meaning of the word, even if this has to be conveyed through several words.

Ludwig van Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany. His exact birth date was never documented but he was baptized on December 17, 1770. Because of this, his birth date is registered someday of December 1770. His father, Johann van Beethoven, taught his prodigious son how to play the very difficult violin and also the piano. His father constantly drank with his friends through the late hours of the night but what's a party without music right? Unfortunately for young Ludwig, Johann, his father, thought the same so he would wake his son in the middle of the night to have him play for him and his friends. if the little boy would oppose, he'd be beaten. After some time, everybody would admire the young boys talent so at his teen years (17-20) he left his hometown to seek teachings from the amazing Wolfgang Mozart. He couldn't make the trip because he had to care for his sick mother and had to wait until 1792, after Mozart's death, to leave to Vienna, Austria. In his early years at Vienna he started to lose his hearing becoming completely deaf in 1816. He lived in Vienna, Austria until his death in 1827, before his death he became the first ever musician to be paid enough money to live off his music.
