Hi,

I need your help. I wrote a story (inspired by slamr) in hungarian, but my english write skill level is not eoungh for the correct and qualitative translate. What should I do?

Thanks, Mike

Well, IMHO, you have only two possible ways:

1. If you reading level is higher than writing - translate as well as you can, and find a good editor here, to collaboratively finish translation, but that would be time and work intensive process.

2. I do not remember exact rules, but try to post it in original language. I somehow remember something along the lines of "as long as google translate can understand it, and the translation fits the rules" but I may be wrong, try to search the forum.

PS. Welcome to the Archive.

Howdy,

Maybe I can help you with translation. I'm not the best Hungarian-English translator but if we work together we will earn success I think. Just drop me an e-mail with the story and I will check it and tell you if I could or couldn't translate it with good quality.

ok, thank you.

I applaud your accomplishment in writing your story. Perhaps you should consider posting the story in both languages, Hungarian and English. --FLO--

Exactly my line. It is a topic so short and we are already three Hungarian speakers on it. Unfortunately my English is too weak to be useful for translation.

ok, thanks!

I started to translate. I think, need a week for it. If I finish, will send to Reginald and to assphalt-cowboy for proofreading.

[Mike-123456 (imported)]

huh, I finished. It was a big work, bigger then wrote the story.

I have one more question:

If I'll upload the story to the archive, can I repalce/update that later?
