ITT: we discuss Localization quirks and post songs in different languages

Growing up most of the content I was exposed to were American cartoons(and some Anime) dubbed into Urdu, However there were certain quirks in Localization that always amused me

One of the most common quirks that I remember was whenever there was a "southern" character (you know the one's with a big cowboy hat), he was given a Northern Punjabi accent to signify his ruralness, and some times flat out references to Texas were changed to Punjab

and were a multi ethnically and racially diverse nation and we have a lot of national stereotypes that translate into the Dub
>Tough Russian Characters are given a Pathan accents
>Wealthy or Nobel characters are given a pure literary Urdu dialect, a type of Urdu accent found in books

I've always wondered what Dora sounded like in French, till one day I was a teen watching switching the channels and I found out that she speaks English as a second language.

I've also wondered what French characters would sound like from France when watching French TV, and they would just make their accents a lot more exaggerated. Thank you for the thread, anon

They all sound the same in movies and popular tv shows, except very specific guys who get a lot of roles. Like how the guy who voiced Shinji in NGE in French also voiced Reese in Malcolm in the middle and Titeuf. Or the colonel in Malcolm in the middle is Armstrong in FMA and Tony the tiger in the cereals ads.

Stuff from the Swat Katz Urdu dub I remember

"Razor" and "T-bone" were changed to "Chootay Mian" and "Burray Mian", directly translates to Little duke and Big manduke Dark Kat was changed "Kala Bila" which also directly translates to black wild cat, the biggest change were the puns,(that show had a lot of cat based expressions and puns) some translated naturally, for e.g the "caught by it's tail" has an urdu equivalent, as well as scaredy-cat but there's no equivalent for "Purrs like a kitten" or "9 lives" cause those expressions aren't used, so they were dropped completely

My personal Disney favourite is this, I feel like they made some of the lyrics more poetic in the french dub

This is imo way better than the og but mainly due to the lyrics being very uncommon/poetic vs the english one

this is interesting bc I would think spanish would be just as relevant to the french, when I was in france my spoken french was too shitty for the other students(french and italian)in the program I was with and their English was shit but we could all sorta chat in spanish lol they just spoke with a obvious spaniard influence and I spoke like a californian
