    What is your language? A 1 to 1 translation can be varying degrees of awkward depending on the two languages involved.

      No, that’s not it. German is very close to English.

      It’s more that the known english-speaking actors suddenly have different voices.

        Oh yeah. We had an exchange student many years ago from Germany and it took her a while to adjust to the actual voices of the actors on Star Trek Voyager, of which she was a fan, because she had only ever heard it with German dubs.
