Re: [lojban] Instruction on how to translate lojbanic dictionary to other languages

This is the kind of almost impossible project I like to spend time on;)
I've already translated a lot of gismu into swedish when I was even zmadu lo ka nintadni la lojban than now.
But it doesn't just seem to be of highest priority neither for me now nor for the lojban community. So I just do my thing, to keep expanding the jbovlaste vocabulary now and then in english.

Is there anything I can do to contribute to the more important parts of lojban development just tell me. But I doubt I can be that useful, since I don't know much about technical, computer stuff and such, as I assume is necessary to do any good in the work with CLL 1.1.

Wanna translate all gismu and cmavo definitions to the language that you speak and have them in jbovlaste?
Here is an instruction on how to do that faster.

1. Open the following document
2. Choose menu File --> "Download as". Choose Excel of OpenOffice format. Open the document in your favorite spreadsheet editor.
If you prefer using Google Spreadsheet choose File --> "Make a copy".
3. Now you can see gismu in the first tab, cmavo in the second tab. Start translating by filling in columns "My definition" and "My notes" using "English definition" and "English notes" as the source of translation.
4. Save your file. Send it to the following addresses: thelogicallanguagegroup@gmail.com and gleki.is.my.name@gmail.com . The title of your message should be "vlaste translated into [YOUR LANGUAGE]"
5. Now wait for us to quickly mass-import all the definitions to jbovlaste (using web-interface would very tiresome for you)

If e.g. you translated only gismu don't hesitate to send them alone.

As for cmavo definitions they are usually cryptic. So don't hesitate to ask us about the real meaning of each cmavo you don't understand. I myself translated all cmavo to my native language and I know that it can be hard (but necessary).

You may ask such questions either in this forum or using the mentioned e-mail addresses.
Any feedback is welcomed.
