Another big milestone in Forvo development: we are now releasing Forvo in Arabic. This is the first language we not only translate but adapt the layout to the right to left writing. Thanks to our dear editor jasmen who has guided us in all the translation process.
This is the amazing look of Forvo in Arabic but the best is that you check it online for yourself and don´t doubt to report any problem you find.
Almost everyday we find a new article or post about Forvo, here are some recent highlights:
- BBC.co.uk, in Persian.
- Habrahabr, in Russian.
What about new languages? We are working on these translations, if you want to collaborate it will be really appreciated:
- German (91% translated)
- Dutch (95% translated)
- Romanian (46% translated)
- Hindi (60% translated)
- Polish( 58% translated)
You have also a new way to stay in touch with Forvo news, our brand new Google Buzz profile. See you there!
Good news: We are very happy to announce the release of Forvo in Portuguese, Italian and French!
As promised by the end of the year we would have more languages available and here it is the first one. The delay until the very end of the year was not intentional anyway. ;)
We have to thank to the editors (Heracleum, spl0uf, emanuelJoab and Diônifer Alan) who have translated Forvo into these languages and also the rest of them who are making a great work in other languages too. Expect new languages in the next weeks, days, or even hours.
And remember, if you want to help to translate Forvo to more languages you just have to ask for it. We´ll set up a translator account for you in minutes.
We have introduced a new lovely feature: translations for each word. Thanks to the Google Translate service, now from every word page you will see that word translated from the original language (more than 50 languages in google´s tool) to the interface language (spanish and english at this moment).
So if translations are not perfect blame Google :)
All Forvo members hope you will enjoy and learn more with this new feature.
