The purpose of fnmatch.translate is to turn a shell pattern into a regular expression. Adding a backslash in front of non-ascii characters may not be as terse as possible, but it still works as a regular expression properly:
The backslash has a special meaning only when it precedes certain characters (e.g. numbers,
A,b,B,d, …) If it precedes other characters, such as'ö', the backslash is ignored.
