    Are any of you guys out there multi lingual at all in the written form? I am looking for some people to translate stuff (Poker Related) from English into the following languages:

    German
    French
    Swedish
    Norwegian
    Danish
    Finnish

    Anybody interested send me a PM or email and include a quote per 100 words translated. There will be a small amount of work ongoing and I would like to give a boards member the first chance at any work that is available.

    I reckon you're best getting native speakers Mike if at all possible, translations done by 'fluent' non native speakers often look sh1te unless they have lived with that language for a good few years, you should see Barclays Portugal English language material, quite obviously done by a Portuguse guy 'fluent' in English :rolleyes:.

    Giz a shout in a few years if you need it in Portuguese ;)

    he also speaks alot of french at the tables aswell, esp after a few scoops

    but i agree with lucky - it would have to be beyond leaving cert level IMO

    try chattin with Laurent in CHL for the french, he'd be very capable.
    C4Queen for swedish and danish i'd imagine

    I agree, translations done by anyone other than a native speaker of the target language or a professional usually look very amateurish.

    You could use babelfish to translate the web pages automatically. I think the result is pleasing :)
