Offer: Translators List
« on: Friday 09 September 05 22:00 BST (UK) »
I was just posting with a fellow Rootschatter who might have rellies from Spain - just wondering if we could get a list of people who can translate languages on a board somewhere? Arranroots pointed out that there are probably quite a few of us who might help with language thingies... just an idea..?

Ger :)

PS I can do a bit of Spanish - if anyone needs it, just ask! :)

Hi Ger,

What a good idea  :)  :)
It's so good that I have modified your title and taken off the question mark !

As of now:

    This is a list of RootsChatters who are willing to do, or help out with translations

To make it easier to spot, please put your language skill(s) in bold.

I'll add myself here straight away:
I can read, write and talk german and am prepared to help out. This help may be a bit slow sometimes, as I usually have a lot of other things to do, but please feel free to ask.

Bob

As I can't help out a great deal with look-ups (living inGermany), I'm happy to help with German. I'm an official translator and interpretor for German, sworn in by the state court of Baden-Württemberg.

And of course, the language of heaven: Welsh.
