Dubbing

This is a phenomenon I wouldn't have thought of: dubbing as a source of language change.

nd speaking of dubbing, I have begun to notice recently that, quite often, the lip movements do not match the language of English programs. It seems to be worse on the USA channnel programs. I don't know if it's a 5-second delay, added in case, by some unknown mechanism, an epithet will be thrust into a rerun program, whose original didn't contain one. I am starting to get seriously annoyed by it.

Interesting link, btw.
