Hello there, I'm from Bangladesh Please have a look at my Bengali version of

StayTheFuckHome.

I've carefully done all the translations and others. I love Your Movement to Stop the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Best Regards Shovon

Hello @shovoncse ,

Great work Bhai! I also got interested and was so happy to see this PR already in place! Thanks for working on this! 💯

The translation is great. However, I feel like it sounds a little too formal and it lacks the stong tone the original one has? I do understand that there's no proper synonym of the F-word in Bangla that doesn't sound a bit vulgar and that it might not be the most appropriate thing in some people's opinion. But I also think the strong phrasing of the original played an important role in getting the traction it's been getting?

So, I think I'd prefer to have a much stronger tone (without being vulgar, of course) to it. I believe that'll help to spread the message more easily and strongly. What are your thoughts on this?

Hi @phelmig ,

Since you're reviewing, I'd also like to know your thoughts on that?

Do you think we should try to preserve the strong tone of the original (the 'Stay the Fuck home' phrase for example)? 🙂

Thanks!

Hello bro, @faahim Thanks for your Appreciation. I had that problem with f-word when I was translating. I didn't find proper synonyms. I also want to use a stronger tone to spread the message more easily and strongly. I think it will not be the same as English then. I've discussed it with my colleagues. However, I will love to see your suggestions on any point if you have any.

Thanks in Advance
