Not too many possibilities for translations, unfortunately.

Haha... Indeed.

Well, we can make Tatoeba a hub for all sorts of new, crazy words, I suppose.

By the way, only 80 real results.

Oh yea, and I guess Urban Dictionary beat me to this word.

Sure, but the difficulty is what makes this sentence fun (hence the translation challenge).

Regarding "he" or "she", maybe just use "it"?

This isn't really translatable for Portuguese because we already have a word for this: "desatualizar".

The verb "to downdate" does not exist in the English lexicon, but let's go ahead and invent it anyway.

➜ #788194Das Verb "to downdate" existiert nicht im englischen Wortschatz, aber lass es uns einfach trotzdem prägen.
