mistranslated

vb. (en-past of: mistranslate)

Usage examples of "mistranslated".

Brought up in a strict churchgoing protestant area, I soon refused to accept implicitly the teachings of the orthodox church, knowing that the Bible is only a collection of legends, translated and mistranslated many times.

If so, however, they have mistranslated the experience, for Mystery is far more malleable and complex, and less precise an entity than the Bardos.
