Is it correct to use 2 different sets of characters to write Khmer on tatoeba.org?

http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentence.../cueyayotl/khm

I know that we don't allow Japanese sentences to be contributed in Romaji here.

If there are indeed 2 different correct ways to write Khmer, perhaps we should have them designated as different languages.

Do we have native speakers here who represent the 2 ways?

Hey all,

registered here a moment ago and this is my short introduction: I'm from germany, as you might guess and my english is not so good, but i hope i'll be able to contribute in german language...

Tatoeba sounds like a great project to me, so I hope we will work together in a productive way and i will find much time to spend here :)

Best, ngerman

Milyen legyen az idegen nyelvű mondat magyar fordítása? Kövessük-e amennyire lehet az eredeti mondat kifejezési formáit, vagy legyen olyan a fordítás, mintha azt eredetileg is magyarul fogalmazták volna meg? Van olyan kritikus, aki hol azt kifogásolja, hogy a lefordított mondatban nincsen benne az eredeti minden szavának magyar megfelelője, hol meg azt kifogásolja, hogy a már eredetileg is sután megfogalmazott mondat magyar fordítása nem üti meg az irodalmi színvonalat. A műfordító hozott anyagból dolgozik, bodzafából nehéz mahagónit faragni. Különálló mondatokat egyébként is nehéz fordítani, mert nem ismerjük a szövegkörnyezetet. Legyen jó nyelvtanilag az új mondat és tartalmazza azokat az információkat, melyeket az eredeti mondat megfogalmazója közölni akart. Aki Makóra akart menni, ne kössön ki Jeruzsálemben a fordításunk alapján. Ez az én véleményem. És a tiétek?

# UI Improvements

* We changed the position of the language icons. It is now displayed on the left of the sentence.
* The link/unlink button (accessible only for advanced contributors) is displayed between the language icon and the sentence's text.
* A button to hide/show replies on the Wall has been added.


# Empty search

Searching for an empty string would redirect you to a message saying "Please enter a nonempty search string".
The search feature has been modified so that searching an empty string will instead display all the sentences.

This feature works also with the language filters, so you can search for <nothing> from Bulgarian, and it will display all the sentences in Bulgarian. You can as well search <nothing> from Bulgarian to English, and it will display all the sentences in Bulgarian that have a translation in English.

Note that there is still a limitation of 1000 results. The count will display the total number of results but you will not be able to browse through all the results, only the 1000 first ones.

Look at the language selection menu. It's only русский that is not capitalized. Is that sort of discrimination or something?

Kara Alexander!

3 more members have asked me that why I do not have Advanced Contributor status, and it is difficult to answer anymore.

I understand that the issue before was that I was contributing in too many languages (even though all of my contributions were from friends who are native speakers). I have since then let all of my sentences in other languages go. The only exceptions are Conlangs, Khmer (which I will give to my wife in April/May this year), Korean (I'm looking for someone here in South Korea where I live to take care of the Korean; I am an official Korean-Spanish translator and know that if I let my sentences go, a non-native will take them...I prefer somebody I trust to take over them. The Korean-language situation is complicated here in Tatoeba), English (for similar reasons as Korean), and Unknown Language (though I gave some of them up, I keep some for the hope that someday a native contributor will come, and the languages will be added).

I have browsed through and labeled all of the sentences in unknown languages, with ISO 639-3 Code, so if you see a sentence in an unknown language here on Tatoeba, you will know it's situation (whether it is simply an error, or if it is a real language, and if so, which language it is).

The one task I am finding to be increasingly necessary to do, is to be able to link sentences. Every time I see a sentence in Spanish that needs to be linked, I write it down into a Wordpad document, but it has gotten very large. I feel that I am wasting other people's time by asking them to link sentences, when I could be doing the work for myself. I would love people from all over the world to be able to learn my language, but it is difficult when, for example, sentences from Spanish to German are only indirectly linked and 'du' 'Sie' and 'ihr' forms are connected freely to 'tú' 'vos' 'usted' 'ustedes' 'vosotros' forms without distinction. I am completely able and willing to take on this task, to develop the Tatoeba Project into the universal tool for language learning that it is meant to be, and advance cross-cultural understanding.

I think that I have proven my utmost dedication to the Tatoeba Project, its value to my wife's life and my own, and the great part it will play in our lives as we travel and learn new languages and cultures... so I once again humbly request the status of advanced contributor.

Thank you and let's keep working hard on the Tatoeba Project!

P.S. I know that last time people got angry at me because they thought that I was requesting Corpus Maintainer status before being an Advanced Contributor, and it made me seem rather ambitious and zealous. But, it was not my idea at all. It was simply TRANG's suggestion.

I would need people to test a couple of things on http://dev.tatoeba.org.

1) I have added a button to show/hide replies on the Wall. Please let me know how you feel about it. Is it confusing to use? If you feel it could be improved, how would you improve it?

2) For advanced contributors: I have moved the link/unlink button next to the language icon. Is this better?

Thanks.
