Käännös - Hollanti-Englanti - Nét echt zo'n etalagepop Goed bezig gozer......

Looks like real, such a window-dummy.
Way to go, dude...

This is actually good slang but in order to make it work some punctuation is needed in English. I would sugges.
Looks like...real...what a window-dummy. Way to go, Dude...

Yes, well..
I think it is meant as slang, no?

This is a tough one actually, I have no idea why somebody put a stress on "net".

Could it be possible that the intention of this sentence was to insult somebody's girlfriend?
I.e. the girlfriend uses too much make-up and looks cheap, like a barbie. I believe "etalagepop" is how we'd say "barbie".

I bet that's not the case though... Maybe some guy thought a window-dummy was a real person? In that case I'd go for "That window-dummy looked so real..." I didn't like the "what a window-dummy" part, it sounded very strange. That's why I voted against at first, maybe I should change that.

So hard to translate those phrases without a decent context!
What do you guys think is meant here?

I don't know, if she really means "barbie" then I don't think she would use the word "etalagepop"
I want to know the context too, but I don't think "barbie" or as we call it "schminkdoos" is meant here.

I've read her former translations requests and they are all from dutch into brazilian portuguese.

I think all her requests in dutch are from the same person.. (since she uses the name "Jochem" quite a lot.)

Maybe she met some guy on the internet or did she read a text, and she wants to know the translation.
If all her requests are from the same person, then I think Urunghai could be right and that "etalagepop" has the meaning of "schminkdoos"

So, guys, what shall we do? Probably edit it in some way. Could you both give me a bit more direction here?

Thanks,

David

So give me what the translation should look like.

Tristangun and Urunghai, dramati is waiting for an answer

I've made CCto them and they will answer soon, so I'm taking the admin switch off

"That window-dummy looks so real!
Way to go, dude..."
That translation is the most neutral - and therefore the best - option in my opinion.

If you really want to reflect Tristans' "schminkdoos" (hah, ja dat is het woord dat ik zocht! ), I'd go for
"(She's) just a real window-dummy!
Way to go, dude..."
