The 104 residents of the village will cast their votes later this week on whether to alter the name.
奧地利小鎮(zhèn)Fucking的104名居民將在本周進(jìn)行投票,決定小鎮(zhèn)是否更改鎮(zhèn)名。

“People are now willing to discuss changes to the spelling of the name,” Franz Meindl, the village’s mayor, said in a television interview. “But first all F---ingers have to agree on whether want to change it or not.”
該鎮(zhèn)鎮(zhèn)長弗朗茨·門德爾在電視訪談中說:“目前人們對(duì)討論鎮(zhèn)名拼寫變更問題很熱心。但變與不變,關(guān)鍵是全鎮(zhèn)居民要達(dá)成共識(shí)?!?/div>

For centuries the tiny village in northern Austria lived life in happy obscurity, but life changed when US troops, stationed in the area at the end of the Second World War, discovered it, and since then the village’s name has been a constant source of amusement for tourists and irritation for locals.

At least 13 £250 road signs bearing the village’s name have been stolen, and the sight of semi-naked women posing for photographs beside signs has become a common sight. One local business woman, exasperated with people stealing her sign has taken to adding another “g” in the hope it will deter thieves.
至少有13塊標(biāo)有該鎮(zhèn)名字的路標(biāo)被盜,每塊價(jià)值250英鎊。坦胸露背的女人搔首弄姿與路標(biāo)合影已司空見慣。一名當(dāng)?shù)氐呐习鍖?duì)那些偷走她路標(biāo)的人感到很氣憤,在路標(biāo)上多加一個(gè)字母“g”,希望以此來消除小偷的惡念。

A brisk market in postcards and Christmas cards making liberal use of the name have also managed to spread its fame.
一家善于把握商機(jī)的明信片和圣誕賀卡商店借使用該鎮(zhèn)名之機(jī)提高了其知名度。

In an attempt to curtail the fun had at the village’s expense some locals want to readopt its 16th-Century spelling and replace the “ck” with a single or double “g”. Experts say the town’s name is derived from Focko, a 6th Century Bavarian nobleman, and the modern spelling was adopted in the 18th Century.
為了不再被當(dāng)作笑料,一些當(dāng)?shù)鼐用裣M匦虏捎?6世紀(jì)時(shí)的拼寫方式,用“g”或“gg”代替“ck”。專家說,小鎮(zhèn)的名字源自一位公元6世紀(jì)的巴伐利亞貴族??疲‵ocko),而現(xiàn)代拼寫方式始于18世紀(jì)。
