Translation for Rules, and Guides.

[[RDSR] Raphi]

Hi,

When you're not an English people, it's difficult to read guides, and rules, who are in English.
I think if we take a tranlation, by many persons with different nationalities, at the end we can have good translation for many, many players who doesn't understand English, or if they have School level.

(If it's accepted, I can make French translation.)
The translation can be too for tests

(If i'm in wrong section, sorry)

Of course it would be useful, and in an ideal world it would already exist.

In actuality, it's a massive task. Not only to write the rules/guides in other languages, but to maintain them and make sure it's all accurate.

There's nothing actually stopping you from going ahead and doing an unofficial one.

Its a good idea, i will be able to translate into spanish,but as BP said, it will be hard work for admins who dont speak other languagues to check that were written correctly

In before 'You should learn english' responses.

[[RDSR] Raphi]

yes KooKoo, but for the tests, it will be more helpful for answers, for example i miss my 1st COP-test, because most of the questions, i haven't understand and Google Translation isn't helpful at all.

[KooKoo]

I didn't say anything negative regarding your suggestion.

[[TC]►Carl◄]

Insim money would be a great incentive for people to contribute to translating the rules and guides lol.

Pretty good idea
So, I can translate for French and I think for German, but German I can't translate all (School level, and vocabulary it's not important, I have a German correspondent)
So, now it's just for amins to implement translation on the website.

I'd love to take part into translating the rules into another language! As people know i'm Canadian french and could help doing it.

Not sure about the whole "Insim money incentive" thing as it's pretty much helping other players to better understand the rules.

I suggest we try to concentrate on some "urgent" languages (arabic, spanish/portugese, Finnish) first then move our way to less important ones (French, ?)

[KooKoo]

Don't the french people in TC know English?

[Borja]

KooKoo , most of them , yes. But some others , no.

Im finishing the translationg into Spanish

[KooKoo]

Nice

[Pipa]

I voted no, since it hasn't worked well in the past.

However unofficial translations here in the forum can't hurt at all. Maybe we could create a subforum for them and one thread per language. People from each language could do quality control themselves and keep it updated.

+1, because of French people don't play a lot, or he understand nearly all, like me But in the Future, it can be helpful.
And we haven't just people of France who speak Frech.We have the Guyana, West Indies, we have even Arabic countries (Tunisia, Morocco, Alegria) even if he speak Arabian, he can Speak French too, because this group of lands were French colonian before, and we have the Québec (even if he speak English , it's more confortable to read text in his national language)
But i agree with you, F'rench people doesn't play a lot comparated of Finnish, Russian, Arabic persons who play more at LFS.
So yes, we translate in French after.
