i didnt see anything about a ban in the words of mosheemes2. i never heard that R’Moshe,tz’l banned his words from being translated

Fair enough. I may the (il)logical leap from

“I’d post what Rav Moshe said about people translating his Teshuvos without his permission and why he felt that way”

to a ban.

Nonetheless, for the sake of argument, let’s say it’s not a “ban” but a simple “I don’t want it done.” My question still applies. Does he mean he doesn’t want a translation published, or does he mean that he doesn’t want anyone to translate the words at all. And, if the latter, did he really mean that I shouldn’t learn it with my son — or even on my own, since I sometimes translate words to myself when learning by myself?
