    Default dos palabras incorrectamente escritas?

    Hola

    Estoy traduciendo unos subtítulos de un documental británico y en la versión inglesa las frases son las siguientes:

    If you're a dimark in Athens
    and there is a dead body in your
    deign you are obliged to bury it.

    No consigo encontrar su significado y me da la impresión que la ortografía podría ser incorrecta, pero después de muchos intentos tampoco consigo dar con la forma correcta de deletrearlas y que tenga sentido.

    Muchas gracias

    Can't come up with anything meaningful yet. It seems to me this must be the text in the closed caption. If you have the audio version, perhaps you can hear it and see if it is actually saying that.

    So far, I thing they are saying ...

    If you're a ______ in Athens
    and there is a dead body in your
    deme (village?) you are obliged to bury it.

    I tried to put a link to the audio, but apparently the forum does not allow it (Please tell me if you figure out how can i share that audio) . In any case, my problem is precisely with those two words on which you doubt.
