P~L~E~A~S~E Help - I need a translator

[Xenonic_Rob]

Hi there - can anyone help?

I'm trying to make my site bilingual, so people can select their language. I need a couple of people who will be mentioned in the acknowledgements who can:

1) Speak fluent English and French
2) Speak fluent English and German
3) Speak fluent English and Italian
4) Speak fluent English and any other language.

Please help!

I speak fluent English, the universal male grunt language, and the ever-useful universal bar sign language ;) Sorry, none of them are on your list.

[Xenonic_Rob]

Hehehe Harry :)

Seriously though, I do need some help, so please do help!

Ever heard of some of these errors when stuff's translated then back again:

"out of sight, out of mind" = "Invisible idiot"

"The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak" = "Good vodka, rotten meat"

What do you mean bi-lingual? Twi languages? Then why do you need so many many different?

Seriously, I am a native Spanish speaking and could help if you like.

For example:

B A hope and son = old fat man

Who and see to sake ago in lost pant alone east = Little John was scared.

(Read those to a spanish speaking person and see...)

[HarryW]

Hmm... something about Juan's trousers?

Yes, bi-lingual means that you can speak two languages, but he means he wants bi-lingual people to translate for him so that he can make his site multi-lingual.

[Xenonic_Rob]

Great.

Spanish............CHECK
French.............HELP
German.............HELP
Italian............HELP

[Juan Carlos Rey]

Yes, something about Juan´s trousers. Little John was so scared he...

It´s a little joke we make around here. It´s not the meaning of the words, it´s about the sound they make when they´re read in English, that resembles a Spanish phrase.

Xenonic_Rob: May I take a look at your site? Can you please post here the URL?
