Are you interested in helping translate Reddit into German?

Hi everyone!

We're really excited about the diverse number of countries that are able to use the platform to create culturally and geographically relevant communities. Our goal is to make sure everyone in the world can find belonging in a community on Reddit. A foundational piece of reaching that goal is to make sure the Reddit product is translated. This will make the site more accessible to millions of people all around the world. We're renewing our efforts to translate the Reddit product (things like buttons, dropdown menus, links in the product... but not the content generated by our users). If you're fluent in another language we're looking for volunteers to help translate Reddit!

Seeing Reddit being translated into French has been really cool, so now we are looking for people who are interested in helping us translate Reddit into German.

How it works

  • We are creating private communities for each language - those communities will contain the product strings that we need help translating.
  • Every post is a string that needs to be translated.
  • A "string" is basically everything on Reddit that wasn't written by a user or mod (e.g., buttons on the site, dropdown menu options at the top of the site). Accurately translated strings help redditors navigate the site in their native language.
  • Some strings include variables like {comments} - suggested translations should leave this variable in place (ie - this is a test {comments} translation).
  • People can leave top-level comments as suggested translations for the string
  • People can upvote the comment they think translates best
  • People can have discussions/debates as threaded replies below the suggested translation
  • The mods will help confirm when a string has received enough upvotes to be chosen as an accurate translation
  • As suggested posts are confirmed there will be new posts every hour each containing a new string to translate, so check back often!

Choosing the best translation

  • The selected translation should be determined by comments with the highest score
  • Once a comment reaches a certain threshold of votes over time, moderators will be able to choose the top translation
  • If there are multiple suggested translations that are very close - moderators should make a call based on the discussion by the community
  • There should only be one selected top translation per post.
  • Selected translations should never be edited.

How you can volunteer

  • If you want to help translate Reddit and are fluent in German, please leave your username in this form (The form doesn't work well when you open it in the Reddit App, so try opening it in a browser)
  • We're looking for both moderators and just users who want to help translate the product strings. So if you are interested in moderating, you can indicate that in the form!

I think the project is dead

It has been a year since the last activity has happened at the crowdin project

I sent my request 2 months ago, but nothing has still happened. (I'd like translating English to Finnish by the way)

I dont know if it will come back, I hope it will.

I can help translate English to Czech

Uh.. the project is probably dead, but if it's still somehow alive i would like to help translate English to Czech. I already sent my request to the Crowdin project, and i'll have to wait, i guess.

Not that this is useful but here's my crowdin account

Suspended?

What does it mean that the project is currently suspended? Will the project be coming back at some point? Crowdin said that the last activity was 9 months ago. So, is the project abandoned or something?

I'd like to translate Reddit to Portuguese

I am native in Brazilian Portuguese, but no one else seems to use Reddit here, so if it be more accessible people maybe will use it

HELP: My reddit changed languages for the responses need it re-set in English

Help! For some reason and I don't know why--when I try to respond to questions the "main tab" such as "respond" and "private" etc have changed languages into French. I need to re-set these to English (and can not read what they are saying). Thank you. Please help.

Hungarian suggestions

Hi, forgive my poor English,

We (Hungarians) do not say 2-4-15454 hozzászólások (replies), we say 2-4-15454 hozzászólás (reply) (no need to put it plural)

We do not say feljelent (report) that's a severe legal term, we say jelentem. (Jelent would be meaningless)

etc.
