It's not the same sentence Phil!

allows for criticism, disguised as humor,...

I think that we would say in English even though there are many other ways of expressing the same thought.

español term (edited): permite incorporar una visión critica, en clave de humor

gives you license to humorously criticise


That would be my take here.

Example sentence:

“La parodia es una técnica que <u>permite incorporar una visión critica, en clave de humor</u> de cualquier producto cultural presente en la sociedad.”

“As a technique, parody <u>gives you license to humorously criticise</u> any cultural aspects of society.”

Peer comment(s):

agree Laurie Price : yes &/but: society's cultural aspects (I hate 'of' -- slows things down)

Thanks, Laurie. I know what you mean about 'of', I try to avoid it wherever possible too. But in this case, I felt I had to use it to cover 'any'.
