Nightmare III and Term Usage

Postby imperatrix » Wed Oct 13, 2010 11:22 am

I've been going through a copy of Nightmare III and have been trying to determine if "sow" refers to a generic player or to a female player specifically. I was hoping if someone had a short transduction of Anne's opening monologue to see what word is used instead.

Sow = Swine = any player

Also what is a slow transduction?

(I wasn't able to think of the word 'transcription' when I was posting.)

Throughout the English version when she refers to a generic player she will use 'swine' or 'pig,' which makes the use of 'sow' at game start so unusual. I was hoping to find the Intro in French to compare what she said to see if it's language barrier problem or intentional usage.

Edit: Finally came across a second usage ~34:28
