Russian translations

[vidimus]

Hello, @Evgeny-Larin

I'm quite impressed by your app to translate the Valkyrie's scenarios into Russian, as well as the increasing number of plays recorded in Russian in scenarios that are not "officially" available in that language.

I don't know if the automatic translation provides a suitable text to be just playable or something more satisfactory. Anyway, if the text is good enough, have you thought about polishing and rewiewing that text to send it to the scenario authors and, that way, making easier for Russian players to play them?

You could count on me for assitance to import/export files and work with them.

Best regards!

Hello, @vidimus Thanks for your issue! Sorry for the late answer to your question The quality of machine translation sometimes leaves much to be desired (sometimes it’s very funny) Refinement to a truly high-quality translation can take a lot of time and will require good knowledge of the language into which we will translate Thus, my application makes it possible to translate the story quickly, without any knowledge and the need to contact the author of the story. And this is a significant plus.

But I have a counter-proposal: what do you think, if I improve the translator and give the opportunity to translate from any language into any language (not only Russian), how much demand can it have in the community?

Hello, @Evgeny-Larin Are you the one playing Spanish scenarios in Russian? Just for curiosity. I see your point about the ease of using the translator instead of contacting the authors, but I can help you with that. Your counter-proposal could be interesting for some languages with only a few translated scenarios. In the case of Spanish, most of the available scenarios are already translated (mainly by me), but I'm quite curious to see how the automated translator will do it with Russian or Korean languages into Spanish.
