de witte raven is a team of doctors investigating cases of patients with unexplainable intolerable or unbearable medical symptoms (OOK onverklaarbare onuitstaanbare klachten).
on the website ‘onuitstaanbare’ is translated as insufferable which strictly speaking is correct. i know of several people who are onuitstaanbaar, so insufferable yes but would ‘intolerable’ or ‘unbearable’ be more appropriate in this context?
this is the story in the vk
