There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Thankfully we have further footage of the interaction which shows the completely opposite to the mistranslation you've been trying to push here. Nothing from the footage we have backs up your claims, interesting.

People think translating from another language to English is just 1-1 but it's not.
A perfect example was translating Oncafari's description of Joker from Portuguese to English where it stated Joker was a "slender male" but that's not was stated in Portuguese.

English
https://oncafari.org/animal/joker/
Portuguese 

Next is that the words may mean different things in one dialect to another.

Correct, when translating common terms to a different language the context matters. In that comment the verb "run" which is "correr" was used, but it was not say that the youngster made him run, I interpret it as Edno rushing towards them, and it's hard to deduct what exactly the guide meant in details as his grammar and punctuation was not the best.
