Asker: Éva megjegyzésével kapcsolatban: szerintem a böszmeség is szleng.

neutral  juvera: A 'boneheaded government' rendben, de a fenti mondat sántikál. Lehet valaki 'boneheaded', de 'boneheaded'-et nem csinálnak. Ne felejtsd, majdnem biztos, hogy magyar fordította.

neutral  Eva Blanar: azt hiszem, ez a CNN-féle változat, egy HírTV-s hapsitól, de a boneheaded szleng, a böszmeség meg nem az

agree  Andras Mohay (X): "something boneheaded"-re 600 adatot hoz a Google, úgyhogy alighanem amerikai angolság
