Translate Outreachy sample tweets
sagesharp opened this issue · 11 comments
This is a meta issue. We could use people translating the sample tweets and sample email about the Outreachy internships to other languages.
We know we get many applicants from:
- Brazil - Brazilian Portuguese is needed
- India
- Russia
- Germany
You can see statistics on where applicants came from on this blog post
Hi @sagesharp, I can translate the texts to Portuguese and send them here to review.
@yogmel Yes, please! You can add a file called sample-tweets-LANGUAGE.txt in the same directory. Feel free to send a PR and reference this issue.
Hello @sagesharp,I am from India.So,which language shall I translate to?
@naba7 Which languages do you speak? I think Hindi is one of the most common languages. Others are listed here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_India
hey! sorry for late reply. Yes,I can speak Hindi and Odia
So shall I translate it to Hindi or Odia?
I would like to contribute to any of the above listed language translations but I don't understand/speak any of those languages. Is it okay if I rely on google translation to translate it?
@gconnect Please only translate to a language you speak. Google translate is often not accurate, especially when it comes to cultural nuances like how to translate the word "genderqueer". You're welcome to translate resources to a different language than the ones listed above.
