Acceptance Criteria

Hi @RLHecht. This is the small task we talked about briefly via slack last week. I've completed pulling the FAQs into the spreadsheet and translating some of them (you'll see that some translations are blank - these are newly or soon to be updated questions). Hoping that you and @lunascoop can help to finish this effort.

What's needed is to translate & back translation those Qs that still need that, and then to highlight the differences in the final English version.

I put a 3 for the full effort, but I'd say this last part is probably more like a 1 or 2.

Thank you both in advance for your help with this!

I've added the additional back to English translations to the spreadsheet and highlighted the translation difference. Back translation check - Coronavirus FAQs.xlsx
