Translations: A Question

[steenhuffel]

This thread is maintly addressed to Piemonte-Sardegna, but if anyone else wants to chuck in a few cents, please do.

I notice in the alliance thread, you say that "all English posts will be translated for our Italian-speaking freinds."

I fully agree with this in principle, but how is it going to work in practice. I can put any posts into Babelfish and copy and paste the results, but this may well do bizarre things to the grammar.

What may be better would be to allow people to post in their own language - either English or Italian - and assign a couple of bilingual moderators to update the posts with translations.

Any thoughts?

That would be ideal, IMO. I wonder if there are any willing to do so.

Actually, my intention was to translate myself.

That certainly works for me.

I second that!
