Hm... but what about those of us who are not translators and primarily
cook from non-English manuscripts? We are reading materials in 
translation. When I first started out cooking, despite being an English 
major, I found translating the Middle English frustrating. I also had to 
struggle with gothic typefaces in facsimiles

Now, after years of practice cooking foods in translation, I found that 
I can interpret Middle English a bit better, and I can also read 
facsimiles with facility, if not with comfort.
