untranslatables
A Guide to Translingual Dialogue


by Yolanda de los Bueis, Elisa Marchesini,
Christoph Schwarz and Sarah Vanhee

“Untranslatables” is not a dictionary. It is not an encyclopaedia. It is not a language course, a grammar book or linguistic research: it is an imaginary word universe that shows gaps and (im)possibilities. It reflects the inability to name everything there is, and the indomitable human desire to do so. It is a colourful answer for the grey zone in our daily vocabularies.
