Auch in Carpe Jugulum gab es wieder einiges, das schwierig und mindestens eins, das meiner Ansicht nach unmöglich zu übersetzen ist. Ich lasse mich allerdings gerne belehren.

'Oh, I don't know, I really don't,' said Nanny. 'I mean, it's flattering and everything, but I really don't think I could be goin' out with a man with a limp.'
'Limp what?'
Nanny Ogg had always considered herself unshockable, but there's no such thing. Shocks can come from unexpected directions.

Terry Pratchett, Carpe Jugulum

Der letzte richtige Witches-Band in der Discworldserie vor den Tiffany-Aching-Bänden wird wohl auch immer mein Lieblingsband bleiben, auf jeden Fall der meistgelesenste. Mir erscheint er der düsterste zu sein, in dem Granny Weatherwax an ihre Grenzen kommmt, was einiges heißen will.

She distrusted a moon like that. A full moon could only wane, a new moon could only wax, but a half moon, balancing so precariously between light and dark ... well, it could do anything.
.
What had she ever earned? The reward for toil had been more toil. If you dug the best ditches they gave you a bigger shovel.
