I know I was initially against it, but I changed my mind and we decided we will be offering Beltchecker in multiple languages. If we are to grow into a true, world wide BJJ practitioner database, I realize this is more important than my OCD's desire for everything to look the same. We will make separate forums for each language. If you want to help with the translation, reply here with your email address and native language. We will then send you an invite to the translation interface where multiple people can work on the same language simultaneously. The more the better!
I must admit : appreciate that you changed your mind ! Was also thinking that English only was limiting the growth of BeltChecker ...

Il n'y a que les fous qui ne changent pas d'idée !

It's going well, but it takes time. When is it supposed to be finished? Otherwise sometimes the context of the sentence is missing (or it's in parts of the site where I don't go).
It's finished when ever it's finished, we can't really put a deadline when we rely on the voluntary help of the members (thanks!).

The context is difficult on some of them, just leave a comment on the string and maybe someone can help :)

For everyone translating, please note this absolute stupidity in the interface!! For those translations with two lines like this, you have to translate the little, lower one. Looks like every single one of us misunderstood that :D
Noooooooooo
I just did 250+ translations and a lot had those lower texts.
Well, something to do tomorrow..

50% Portuguese OK :)
Guys, are there any more Brazilians to give a little help here? :)
Our language is very complex and sometimes it's good for two people to check it out :)
Things like WORDS HAVE 4 DIFFERENT MEANINGS. kkk
But it's going well. If everything goes well tomorrow I should finish the Portuguese.

Very impressive!! But you made the same mistake as I mentioned above (that we all made apparently :D)

(You're supposed to translate the small gray text when there are two lines)

Portuguese... 100%
I have some doubts about terms (here we use diferent ones for some things) :)
It a good idea another person who speaks Portuguese take a look.
I leave just 11 "Fuzzy" transltions because i really dont know :).. but all 1314 are ok! :)
Cheers
PS: Maybe when we see this working in site, some terms need be changed.

100% ! damn that was fast. congrats.

33% here for Japanese

chia va piano va sano
chia va sano va lontano

not rushing

and same caveat as Mr. Totoka, once we see things live it will require tweaks for context.

quick question specifically for Japanese : as you start receiving documents with proof of name in Japanese, you'll need natives to confirm those.

probably best to encourage/require folks to register with their main name in roman script (passport format), while leaving the option to register their name in Kanji somewhere, maybe the nickname field?

Hey everyone! The first translation are now live on the site. They include French and Portuguese (Brazilian). We have a few more nearing completion: Russian and Danish are getting close. Icelandic and Japanese are at about the 50% complete mark. Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far.

Acho que é muito justo ter todas infornações em varios idionas ainda mais o Português Brasileiro pois o Jiu Jitsu é uma arte marcial Brasileira e isso deveria ser o idioma que todos os praticantes deveriam saber o mínimo deste idioma até mesmo para não perder a sua origem e sua história. Posso contribuir com as traduções em Português e Español.

Olá Ricardo.
Acabei 100% da tradução..mas o sistema deixa uns erros e estamos corrigindo:
ex: "Faixa Amarelas" , e outras concordâncias.
Mas são ajustes.
Se puder ser tradutor tb, pode editar o arquivo que eu já fiz.
Deve haver alterações pontuais :)
Toda ajuda é necessária.
Abraço
