I'm translating a Q&A session for some friends (link
[here](https://www.mitsudomoe-anime.com/mitsugonikike/an03.html)), and I'm
having a bit of trouble with this question:

> Q: みっちゃんは地デジ対応ですか？
>
> A: ち、地デジ……？ ふ、ふふん、残念ながら、私の口には合わなかったわね！

I translated these as the following:

> Q: Do you have digital broadcasting at home, Micchan?
>
> A: D-digital broadcasting..? Heh, heheh... I'm sorry to say that it just
> isn't for me!

I took 対応 as "dealing with" (or having), and 合わなかった as "something I didn't
agree with".

I have no idea what 私の口 means in this sentence, which makes me feel like I'm
missing something crucial in this conversation.

How should these be translated?

translation meaning word-choice
Help Translating 私の口には合わなかった
It seems to me that みっちゃん did not understand what 地デジ meant and probably
thought it was some sort of food. In her response it looks like she was just
pretending to know what it was, maybe to avoid embarrassment. 口に合う or 合わない
basically means to like or dislike the taste of food or drink.

As for 対応, みっちゃん is being asked if she (her tv, house, etc) can handle 地デジ, so
I think that your translation is good.

p.s. How about Mitchan? I think it's a closer approximation to the sound of
みっちゃん.
