Swahili Translation #942

Open Kevin7744 opened 6 months ago

Kevin7744 commented 6 months ago

Making this repo accessible to Swahili speakers will be great and since Swahili is spoken with over 200 million Africans. I'll love to help in translating it since am proficient in Swahili and interested in contributing.

so, i need to change documentation, README files, or any other text in the repository?

Kevin7744 commented 5 months ago

You need to add an issue then create the PR. Is that it?

the1Riddle commented 5 months ago

I see it awesome,

but there is some translation i also come across checkout this issue #818 which was opened by a folk with the translation. i guess it would be best to help them out as the are having some checks fail for some, one , two reasons. whats your thought on that ...
