Wait, seriously? How many mistranslations have been coloring the way I perceive my favorite story?What am I missing? Is there a way to find a better translation?

Does anyone have any idea why in the english translation of Inkheart it's The Bluejay when in german he's called the Jay? Or did that just sound too much like a nickname and not enough like a bird? Cuz like

this is pretty but not the bird the Character is named after which would be this:

And I'm wondering wether that really just got changed because Jay sounds too much like a normal name. (also arent Bluejays native to north america? that doesnt matter in the inworld ofc cuz it's fantasy but as a fun little detail/foreshadowing it's mentioned earlier on in Inkspell that Mo would give Meggie apology gifts like a bookmark decorated with jaybird feathers which he'd collect in Elinors garden. In northern italy. Where you would not find bluejays)

you know, looking at this and seeing the burn scars (awesome detail btw) it just occured to me that while fenoglio tells us basta burnt his arms, supposedly noone knows (because he always wears long sleeves). But like, wouldn't his hands be burnt as well? And yet that is never described.

Inkheart was one of my favorite books when I was a kid, and all my love was for foxy face Basta❤️ that superstitious bastard was and is my favorite character.

(Adding multiple covers this time because the first one is cool but I think people are more likely to recognize the second)

the Inkheart books ask the important questions: what if you could talk to your favorite blorbo? What if your blorbo thought you suck? What if your blorbo would like to see you dead?
