    Well yes @Spinnifix I strongly agree with you that it takes much longer. And also it does not always work, sometimes the translator spends endless minutes (I have come to be 16 minutes) thinking and thinking until he offers the translation, to make matters worse there are words and expressions that do not exist the same in all languages, and then the translator What does he do then? Well, very easy, he makes it up πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    The translator has the power to turn a sentence would be a pointless mockery πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

    It's a work that requires full understanding of the languages, meaning and context!

    KUDOS to all the translators who have worked hard in translating the languages for us to understand them easily...

    I'm illiterate in Mandarin and yet I have to translate it into English in a written form through my listening and understanding skills... took me 2-3 years to improvise... until now I still can't read Mandarin 🀣That's my job!

    yes let's not forget the people who translates! it's a hard work. It should also remind other people that the community should pay attention to this when designing, making a project ect so that the community could be accessible for everyone :)

    The technology does help these days

    This is your job? I'm shocked. Massive respect. I wouldn't know how to start. Probably with google translate and crossing fingers and hoping for the best.

    Wait, I used to do this in high school when I had to translate Latin.🀣🀣 How could I forget. But without internet and with a real dictionary 🀣 To think that once Latin birthed Italian. Words definitely, the syntax...well yeah but let's drop the topic. It helped with the cases in German classes though.


    And thank god I wasn't in gymnasium otherwise I would have had to translate Ancient Greek too, jeez

    Brilliant @Spinnifix πŸ‘πŸΎ

    this is so accurately thought of because i clearly understand the struggle to translate what you wish to say and what way you wish to express yourself using the translator ... Well done to the Brains behind the translating ✊🏾

    Thanks @Diamond Lim for the tag🍭πŸ₯‚

    I never like it, in the movies, when a person knows multiple languages dies. What a waste. Yep, great, they are at bringing people together. Making those foreigners not foreign.

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
