The term "Gilded Age" in Spanish is commonly translated as "Edad Dorada," which literally means "Golden Age". The phrase "Gilded Age" refers to a specific historical period in late 19th century America characterized by rapid economic growth and ostentatious wealth, which in Spanish is expressed as "Edad Dorada" to convey a similar idea of a prosperous or glittering era.
Regarding why "The Gilded Age" TV show appeared in Spanish, there was a recent glitch on HBO Max causing the show to stream with Spanish audio by default for many viewers. The issue caused some confusion since the series is in English, but it was quickly fixed by adjusting language settings on the app. The show's star Carrie Coon even humorously acknowledged the incident on social media in Spanish.
In short:
- "Gilded Age" translates to "Edad Dorada" in Spanish.
- The association with Spanish audio recently relates to a streaming glitch on HBO Max, not the original English-language content.
This explains both the translation and why the show might have been heard in Spanish recently for some viewers.
