Rephrasing

Rephrasing is a collective art at Tatoeba.

Rephrasing Shaw's well-known principle as regards Tatoeba, one may say: "Make up a sentence that even a fool can translate, and only a fool would want to translate it."

This looks like an attempt at rephrasing a well-known English proverb.

Emanuel’s version was already blander — and later rephrasings have inevitably become more so.
