Thanks,

Actually Michael Kappas pointed me back to
<http://www.translate.google.com> http://www.translate.google.com -which I
checked before our trip, but at the time did not have Mongolian - it does
now!  So I'll be testing it out, I actually have a translator app on my
phone, but it translates Mongolian very poorly; but this seems to do much
better and actually works with Cyrillic characters.

Hi Russ

You may ask assistance as well from Translators W/o Borders (TWB) who are
member of the Digital Hum Network (DHN). 

Sev opened up a relation for HOT to benefit from their expertise. 

This was actually one thing that I was going to recommend: build more on
this partnership + other VTCs with translation capacities to get additional
translation man power (we got some in HOT for sure) and do a better job at
tackling the first degree of inter/multi culturality at work: which is
breaking the barrier of Language. 

I am happy to help facilitate this with Sev.

Best, 
Nico

Hello,

 

I just wanted to know if there is anyone on this list that could translate
Mongolian to English (or French) and vice versa.

 

Our local community there has a very hard time reaching out to us because of
the language barrier, so it would be great if I could tell them to just
email the list in Mongolian and we'll figure it out.

 

Currently they are doing their best to ask questions in english, but I can
tell it is difficult and time consuming.

 

Thank you,

=Russ
