I have a paper written in German (which unfortunately I can't read) that I really want to cite. I've read about the findings in other papers...but I of course have not read the original. Would I be ok to reference this as a secondary citation?

Thanks

google translate...

Nice idea...if it weren't for the fact that the paper is from 1933 and a scanned-in copy which I can't copy and paste from...and that google translate is not that good except for single words and phrases...

You could try this first:

followed by google translate. I do not know how well it will work, but it is worth a try.

You should definitely mention it.
