Apple's iPhone Event Tagline is Different in Every Country

[gknewell]

Russia- "When it's raining, one won't roof the cottage; and when it's clear and sunny, the roof isn't leaking."

 

[torontotim]

I guess “different in every country” means something completely different in MacRumors-speak.

As was mentioned before, in Japan it says おはよう世界。
("ohayoh sehkai")

Isn't 世界 composed with せかい, rather than せいかい?

I would have transliterated it as "ohayou sekai".

 

[sos47]

HomePad that wakes you up with info about the day?

or just with
“Good Mornaaaaaang”

Can't judge an apple by its colour.

Interesting. Waiting to see the event and excited to see the foldable.

Below it reads:
　Apple's special event is broadcast online.
　Japan Time September 10th from 2am.

(a pretty useless time, haha... 🤣)

Japan usually gets the short end of the stick when it comes to event times…

…only truck drivers and FamilyMart workers will get this “good morning” here, otherwise, it would be おはよう日本…

At least Japan can look forward to the recorded event broadcast when they wake up!

“Apple is framing the leaked secrets as a shiny surprise to usher in a new chapter.” Ha!

For standard romaji, you would be right 😉

Headline: “… Different in Every Country”

MR: Proceeds to start a list with seven countries where it is the exact same.

An unfortunate title.

Not sure why English has just one version worldwide, while other languages like French or Spanish have several versions.

 

[ksec]

I am more surprised about MR finding this as news and reported it as headline.

This has been the case for 20+ years.

 

[MrVin]

In thai, it said "Smile to accept new shine" ... quite different with other countries.

Castellano Spanish and Spanish from Latin America often don't use the same terms, that's why there are usually different dubs of movies as well. Movie titles from Spain often sound hilarious to me cuz they try to translate the English one word by word while the Latin American movie title is trying to get closer to its meaning or not translated at all. I guess the same is true for Brasil and Portugal

Is comming Siri PL? I don't think so...
Zdumienia i olśnienia. Oby 🙂

 

[contacos]

The German one isnt really different, you just looked at the literal translation. Languages are an amazing thing

 

[jchap]

In thai, it said "Smile to accept new shine" ... quite different with other countries.

Hmm, Google Translate gives "Smilingly embrace a new surprise", and Apple's own new Siri (macOS 27 beta) gives "Smile for a new surprise." I don't speak Thai, but perhaps these translations seem more likely?

How many languages can you say:

“Most Pro”
“We think you are going to love it”
“Courage”

 

[Perponcher]

The Belgian site is available in French and Dutch. The Dutch version follows the text from the Netherlands at this moment.

 

[newyorksole]

watch Kylie Jenner be involved

 

[omenatarhuri]

Finnish word Uudenkoitto seems to be made up. Never heard it before and can only find reference to this event with it. As a Finn I understand what they mean with it but it does seem to be novel.

 

[jole]

It is not about iPhones after all. Bases on the invitation picture, it clearly is about OpenAI Sol model coming to Siri.

I would wager most Canadians outside of Quebec do not speak French.

There are french speaking communities in each province but certainly a lot less now as french immersion is less popular than it was.

I would have transliterated it as "ohayou sekai".

You are right.
However, the problem is that Americans when they see "sekai" they would often pronounce it either as "sah-kai" or "see-kai", which are both wrong.
To aid American people in the pronunciation I felt "sehkai" is the better choice...
