CHALLENGE: Do 100 translation challenges (4 pages)

Post by Arayaz »

This is a challenge for anyone who really wants to flex their translation muscles. Originally, I had entertained the idea of doing every single challenge, and might later ─ but that's about 750 translations, which might be a bit much for a short amount of time. So I, and anyone who wants to join me in this, will be translating 100 new texts into my language (Yoshó, in this case).


Good luck to anyone who wants to try this!

Ooh, that sounds great for Yoshó! You'll really expand its lexicon! Plus you'll find all sorts of grammar questions you didn't realize you had to solve.

You can do it! I believe in you! If I can do it you can do it! (Okay, for me it takes three months, but who's counting?)

I really like the idea! I would join, but I've done just about every translation challenge on this board with Yélian already. Probs on you for creating some much-needed traffic here, as well as some new challenges!
Wipe the glass. This is the usual way to start, even in the days, day and night, only a happy one.

Thanks :) I thought the translations board needed some attention.

Next on the list to salvage: the Language Learning & Non-English board...
