French term or phrase: ça va leur changer
Ciao a tutti, trovo quest'espressione:
En tout cas, ça va leur changer de leur gastronomie locale!
E' riferita ad un gruppo di soldati francesi trasferiti in Russia e la frase è pronunciata da un soldato russo.
Non mi viene in mente nulla di soddisfacente per tradurre quest'espressione. Dire "Certo che sarà ben diverso dalla loro gastronomia locale" è orribile...
Qualcuno ha un'idea?

neutral  Mari Lena: cambiare la gastronomia non rende l'idea.. forse cambiare gusti culinari al massimo

neutral  Françoise Vogel: in realtà è sbagliato il francese ("les changer")
