Serbian speakers: There are two Serbian translations of "Being a Noob." Which should I link to? https://jelenadobric.com/writing-translations/biti-noob-paul-graham … https://netboxify.com/translations/biti-noob/ …

The first one, wins on clarity and no font errors, which are frequent in the second one.

The first one is clearly superior (even translating Farawavia appropriately, the other just leaves it there). The second translation is very literal, retaining the English sentence structure, which is a bit weird.

Neither are spot on, but the translation from Jelena feels more on-point on the whole. I’m a Bosnian speaker, but that’s close enough to Serbian... aside from the obvious geo-political and religious difference.

Wikipedia has a great article on the differences

Jelena Dobric's translation is far better. It gives me the feeling as if the original has been written in Serbian. The other one feels like translation from non-Slavic language.
