Discussion about life, phoenix-network's 'water cooler'

translate?

Postby krod on Tue Nov 01, 2005 7:55 pm

anyone willing to translate phoenix-network.org in their home language? I would just babel fish it, but it usually doesn't make much sense with a direct translation.

we are going to have a few flags in the corner, which will allow users to choose their language.

I can do my share (Serbian, though Croats and Bosnians will understand every word).

I don't mean to interrupt in here, and unfortunately, I can't be of much assistance to y'all on this request. But I just wanted to say that I think it's so great that you are going to make this a multi-lingual site.

You guys are constantly improving this and I think that's what drew me in and made me want to stick around.

*two thumbs up*
mhmm... kthx!!

I can do the German translation, but is it worth the effort? I mean, there are too few users and no international forums. Also I think, we've already made clear that international forums wouldn't make much sense. The IRC channel is also English and splitting it up into multiple languages wouldn't make much sense either.

email the translations to [email protected]
include what page is being translated etc...

We are doing so international users can find us more easily.

Put in bold somewhere that this translation is here to assist you in your initial overview of the website but after this stage you will be required to communicate in english to get anywhere Razz
