Thats not very reliable at all. No free translation system works 100%. Its best to have a someone native to the chinese language that knows both English and Chinese then to use a free non-reliable system. In order to have a good translation system, you would need to purchase it.

I doubt they even work nearly 50% when they are asked to translate more than one word.

Then take it 1 word at a time, Mr. Sparkey.

Do you know how long that would take? It's much easier to just have someone hired. Graal Online is a product made from a company, and it wouldnt be very professional of them to use a non-reliable translation system for translating.

But then it messes up with variations of different words and other things :P

It garbles.

Sometimes certain words are said before others, and so on. It is far too inaccurate to be used well.

This translates words, but not grammar.

Skyld · #11 03-15-2005, 06:42 PM

Or you could just find somebody who speaks fluent English and Chinese.

csod123 · #12 03-15-2005, 07:26 PM

actualy if you are going to hire someone who speaks chinese you would have to hire a few people, there are many different dialects.

No, I think you mean accents?

Kaimetsu · #15 03-16-2005, 11:14 PM

Well, it's not unusual for there to be various dialects within a language, but usually there's enough common ground to facilitate communication.

I think he means more like Mandarin Chinese and... that other form of Chinese.

Actually they are like different langauges. Since you live in Sweden havn't you heard any single different langauge then the "common" Swedish? Like in Dalarna for exampel?
They speak something completely different, well not completely but something that we that speak the common Swedish langauge wouldn't understand.

Mitch · #18 03-25-2005, 12:04 AM

There can me countries right next to each other or even counties with a completely different language and their can also be ones where the dialog is fairly similar. The chinese and japanese languages are not at all similar, it's the history of the two countries that makes you think so. I doubt it would be right to say Japanese and Chinese is similar, no effense but that hurtful to few.

He said that he wanted to move to Japan, so I asked him if he could speak Japanese, and he said yes, and I assumed that, being that he wanted to move to Japan, he would have to be able to speak it fluently.

Slash-P2P · #27 03-15-2005, 11:31 PM

I speak English..may I have 1/2 paid work?

TeRRi2k · #28 03-16-2005, 02:31 AM

That doesn't work because I tried it once. The meanings are all distorted and some characters aren't even ANYTHING when standing alone.

There's many more than five. But the main ones are all written in the same form, so if this paid job is purely written then there is no problem concerning dialect. Otherwise choose between Mandarin or Cantonese, because almost every Chinese person will understand at least one of these dialects.

Well mandarin and cantonese are written the same way (traditional/simplified are really similar) but other I'm not sure about other dialects. This job states "You must be able to speak Chinese/English fluently." ....so what about writing/reading,etc?

osrs · #31 03-16-2005, 07:14 AM

Alexander is chinese, not sure if he wants to work anyway.

Really? We're friends and I had no idea!

ThinkDifferent · #33 03-16-2005, 03:24 PM

I know quite a few people in real life who are Chinese (natives) who do speak the language and USED to play Graal. I'll inquire about their interest in the project later today.

Crono · #34 03-16-2005, 06:44 PM

unixmad said chinese, where the hell are you people getting japanese from?

Wondering the same thing xD (but maybe because Chinese and Japanese are similar in a few ways.)

I would apply to this, cept I don't know what they'll require you to do besides 'speaking' it.

*wondersx3*

I think he means he's looking for a translator, besides knowing how to speak the language but able to read/write in it...you can do catonese, I'll do Hakka!

No one seems to know that language anymore :|
