Open sagesharp opened this issue 6 years ago • 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:

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.

@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

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.
