Thought folks might get a kick out of this website:
www.bopsecrets.org/gateway/...-frog.htm
It has 31 different translations of one of Basho's haikus. The range is so big, between the various pieces...you can hardly recognize them as being the same poem.
I guess the only way to truly tell is study Japanese!
take care,
Jon
