English term or phrase: legacy ‘spaghetti’ software
Banks who have embraced modern banking technology have fared better in meeting these challenges. They’ve moved seamlessly to remote working, kept up service for their customers, coped with huge increases in demand and quickly adapted their products. In contrast, banks using legacy ‘spaghetti’ software have struggled.

agree  Roberto Nogueira: Esse adjetivo se refere ao domínio rudimentar de um idioma estrangeiro. Fernanda Montenegro falava de seu "inglês macarrônico" a propósito das entrevistas no tapete vermelho do Oscar. Acho que funciona bem nesse contexto.

agree  Tomasso: este artigo semelhante, tem palavras spahetti e macarrão (pasta) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaghetti_code
1 hr
  -> Obrigado, Tomasso! Eu não gosto da tradução literal com macarrão, porque não tem a mesma conotação em português.

agree  Paulinho Fonseca
11 hrs
  -> Obrigado, Paulinho!

agree  Roberto Nogueira: Tradução muito boa e precisa, mas acho que perde um pouco da ironia que o adjetivo "macarrônico" poderia manter. Cf. https://aulete.com.br/macarrônico
13 hrs
  -> É verdade, Roberto, mas aí cabe ao tradutor escolher um adjetivo do seu agrado. Obrigado!
