Title: The translation to English
Product review: This is about the worst translation of the Hebrew text imaginable. RamBam said exact translation is impossible, but a translater should try to put the Hebrew text into words as close to the same meaning as possible. The Artscroll siddur strays far from the equivalent meaning, giving the translation that the author wants to impress upon the reader, not what the Hebrew says or implies.Also, the many directions to the davener are a bad distraction, almost all of which are customs practiced in certain locals, & have nothing to do with mitzvoth.
