imaginary American woman?

grumblerpublicó un comentario 6 years ago

imaginary звучит как выдуманная, несущестующая

мнимая - это, скорее всего, выдавала себя за американку, но на самом деле американкой не была.

Что вы думаете насчёт putative?

⁌ ULY ⁍publicó un comentario 6 years ago

я даже не знаю, что это значит

grumblerpublicó un comentario 6 years ago

wannabe - does this not mean that she wants to be/become?
выдавала себя за американку - this doesn't imply any plans. She just pretented to be an american for some reason.

Mary Janepublicó un comentario 6 years ago

Pretended to be - безусловно самый верный вариант. Однако чисто из интереса, какое все же прилагательное могло бы идеально подойти по смыслу?)

grumblerpublicó un comentario 6 years ago

можно просто pretended American

А чем вам wannabe не нравится?
.... who tries to look or act like someone else.

⁌ ULY ⁍publicó un comentario 6 years ago

SELF-STYLED and BOGUS are mostly used for professions or titles. PRETENDED is out of the question. If she just wants people to believe that she’s American, WANNABE is the only thing that makes sense to me. Or you can spell it out and say “a woman trying to pass herself off as American.”

How about "a false American"? - She says she's American while she's not.
