Language Translations for Creation

CatPerson :0 I'm so glad you can join, then! It's so awesome that your aunt was interested in them and that she's a big part of your profile reading. It's nice when someone is that invested in something that you do. Good luck with translating and I'll be sure to add you in the list!

iboga My apologies, but I don't think that it's possible to delete the comment. I seem to be able to edit or delete my own, but not others'. Sorry for the inconvenience :( If you want to just leave the comment there or make it an empty comment (if you can't delete it yourself) then that will also be fine :)

pax :0!!! Holy crap!! That's amazing! If this forum ends up helping to preserve dying languages or cultures, that'd be awesome! Especially if it would somehow help keep it alive or even get others interested in it. So just to be sure I understand this correctly, you'd like to be placed in the list under Filipino, but with Gaddang attached? Or would it be Tagalog with Gaddang attached? It would look pretty simple like "Filipino (Gaddang)" or "Tagalog (Gaddang)." I definitely want to be sure I label these properly.

Also, feel free to post the link to the dictionary here whenever you guys get it finished! You're welcome to explain it, tell why it's here, etc if you want so that others will also know about it :) Anything the forum post can do to help it get some attention!

pax Oh wow, I had no idea! It's reasons such as these that I ask about proper labeling. Thank you so much for informing me! 

I'll probably put "Gaddang" for now. If other Philippine languages pop up enough, perhaps I'll label it differently, but putting them as their own language seems to fit better from what you're saying. I'd rather respect each one that comes up in that regard. Once again, thank you so much for informing me! 

On that topic, how would you thank someone in Gaddang? And are there different ways of talking to someone depending on how close you are, like honorifics or anything? :) 

Wenldy Aw don't feel nervous! I'll be sure to list next to your name that you do English ---> Russian. BTW I absolutely LOVE how Russian sounds :) It's always been one of my favorite languages, so it's great to have someone here that speaks it! I very well may contact you at some point XD

pax That's so fascinating! I'm more familiar with there being some kind of honorifics when speaking to higher ups, but more recently there have been more languages I've discovered that don't do that. But I feel it would be kinda intimidating to hear someone speak in Gaddang if they're not used to it XD But that's so interesting! Thanks so much for teaching these things! I hope to learn more from you about your language and culture :)

I've seen this thread before but keep forgetting to comment! Feel free to list me up for Japanese :D I'm a pro J-E translator of several years and I'm always happy to help people with small things when I have the free time 👍

Waltz That's awesome! I'll be sure to list you. Are you able to translate any kanji at all? I think that's the thing I have the most issues with XD

Haha yep! Reading kanji is actually the bulk of dealing with Japanese, so I do so plenty. Admittedly there are still plenty of compounds that I have to look up, even after a decade+ of study, but recognition definitely improves with practice 👍

Waltz Amazing! I will definitely keep you in mind when I come across something that doesn't make any sense at all XD Thanks so much! 

Is there any way I can have mine changed from broken spanish to learning spanish please?

DanTheMemeMan Consider it done! Sorry if it came across as rude, that wasn't the intention ._. 

It's no problem thats what I meant at the time, But I do know a lot more now then I did at the time!

DanTheMemeMan That's great to hear! Glad that you're expanding your knowledge :) Keep it up!
