Since there's no 'medical translation' group, I'm basically SPAMing people. Anyway the most recent email I wrote was to a group of 2200 medical educators. Two of them must have passed on my information to students, because I've got a about 6 messages either from Mississippi or Florida. In total I've probably got about 20 people so far who have said they'll test our system.\r\n\r\nOffhand I'd say we've got 2 Spanish speakers, 2 Arabic speakers, an African doctor from the Congo (he speaks 5 languages), 2 people from India and a Brazilian. The good news is that many of these people are doctors.\r\n\r\nIDEA:\r\n\r\nIs there a way to note which of these people have emails that come from an institutional email address... for example an .edu email address in the States stands for 'education', it's a good marker that whoever is writing to you is a real student.\r\n\r\nPROBLEMS:\r\n\r\n1) The Indian student mentions that she speaks three languages, including Hindi, but she can't write in Hindi. So.... is there a way to have volunteers use a tickbox that says if they can write in the languages they list. I know many Russians for example who can't write using Cyrillic etc. \r\n\r\nMy gut instinct is to say that if people are doing volunteer audio translations, they MUST provide us with an audio translation (for example in Spanish), written translation (in Spanish), and they must tell us if they've changed the question and provide us with a written English translation if they've changed the question in any way. (That's 3 steps to an audio translation)\r\n\r\nMy other gut instinct is that if you can't write in a language, you should ONLY be able to verify in that language and not translate. \r\n\r\nNEXT PROBLEM: \r\n\r\nVerification: I've got people that are telling me that they speak Cuban Spanish or Brazilian Portugese or Egyptian Arabic. \r\n\r\nHow about we let anyone who speaks Arabic verify other Arabic translations, BUT we ask them if they feel comfortable doing it.\r\n\r\nFor example we've had users sort their language into language/dialect (group/subgroup)... So if someone speaks Arabic, we open up all Arabic translations for them to verify, but if their dialect is different they see a popup, something like:\r\n\r\nYour language is: Arabic\r\nYour dialect is: Tunisian Spoken\r\n\r\nWe have a translation ready for you in:\r\n\r\nLanguage: Arabic\r\nDialect: Najdi Spoken\r\n\r\nDo you believe you can verify this language/dialect? \r\n(If you are in doubt, select 'no')\r\n\r\n____ Yes\r\n____ No\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/FACG5/Twig/issues/comments/439809796","html_url":"https://github.com/FACG5/Twig/issues/132#issuecomment-439809796","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/FACG5/Twig/issues/132","id":439809796,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQzOTgwOTc5Ng==","user":{"login":"db626","id":44851386,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjQ0ODUxMzg2","avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/44851386?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626","html_url":"https://github.com/db626","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/db626/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-11-19T08:29:47Z","updated_at":"2018-11-19T08:29:47Z","author_association":"COLLABORATOR","body":"Tomorrow at 3?\n\nOn Sun, Nov 18, 2018 at 11:39 PM Farah <notifications@github.com> wrote:\n\n> The sooner the better.
