French Translation in Forums
Because of the growing number of french posts, I am thinking about adding some translation options. Hopefully usings googles Translation service.
Will other have a button on each forum topic that says "Translate this page"
or a button on each post "Translate this post"
The reason i might do just post, is because the googles trasnlator craps out if there are too many words on a page.
I just need to figure out a way to do this.
I need this, my french is not very good, and it is certainly alright for people to post in french, but if they do keep in mind that a lot of people won't be able to understand it. There is the exclusive French Discussion forum as well.

Y a see... some "oomph" is lost.
I don't know the quality of the translation but maybe try babel fish (altavista website, translate).

I really didn't notice. I think its just for us to get a point. sometimes when the separatist try to translate themselves, the sound more like yoda than an english speaking person. this translation option might actually help when it comes to "oomph".
Isn't canada supposed to be bilingual?
Isn't that flag supposed to have a Maple Leaf on it?

don't humans have learning disabilities? not me, but my cousin has been incapable of learning any more forms of linguistics since he hit his head on concrete when he was seven. Me, I simply cannot put french to any use out here on the west coast, so I've been frogetting what I learned. anyone care to set up a forum to teach no french speaking anglophones french would do me, and maby all the french folks on here, a favour. Also might be a good idea if we did that for the french guys that can't speak english.

and yes, where is the maple leaf in the middle of that flag?

Mine doesn't. Nor does canucker's or several others.
True enough, but your flags don't hold the same political weight, they don't have the same arrogant, defient attitude. Know what I'm talking about?
