Is it still the case now?

When Tatoeba is very slow, it can happen for all kinds of reasons. In your case I was thinking it could be caused by our daily backup of the database. But this happens at 23:00 UTC so it was not running yet when the website was slow for you.

If Tatoeba is very slow on a regular basis, try to write down when and let us know. We can check then if there's an automated process that makes things slow.

Otherwise, the slowness is most likely temporary and caused by an unusual usage of Tatoeba.

Thank you.

You can copy the link that leads to the sentences's page (right click on desktop, long press on mobile). The number is the last part of the URL. (I assume this is for mentioning the sentence number in a comment?)

There are several ways.

If the experimental option "Display sentences with the new design" from "Options" under "Settings" is enabled:

(1) At the top of the page, click the "up-down" button, which consists of a caret pointing up (^) above a caret pointing down (v) . This toggles the whole page between (a) a display that shows the sentence numbers and owners but doesn't show as many buttons above a sentence and (b) one that shows more buttons but hides the sentence number and owner.

(2) Click the "up-down" button above a specific sentence. It looks like the other "up-down" button, but only changes the display for that sentence.

(3) On a desktop computer, you can hover the mouse over the "i" icon on the right-hand side of a sentence. Then you can look at the address (for instance, "https://tatoeba.org/en/sentences/show/829113") at the bottom of the page. The number at the end of the sentence is the sentence number.

If that option is not enabled, you can see it on a desktop computer by hovering your mouse over the "#" icon to the left of a sentence.

Did you follow the steps?

Please, keep in mind that we need

✔ As many sentences as possible in the target language;
✔ A suitable flag;
✔ The ISO 639-3 code;
✔ A list which contains sentences in this language (you can create one here - https://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences_lists/index)
✔ Any information about this language (e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_language );

So, send this information and any question you have to language-team@tatoeba.org or PM the Language Team - https://tatoeba.org/eng/user/pr...baLanguageTeam

Me encantaría que se hiciera pero lo veo difícil, porque en el caso del árabe, y seguramente del hebreo y del persa, hay muchas vocales que aunque se pronuncian no se escriben (solo las escriben en los cuentos para niños pequeños, libros para que los extranjeros principiantes aprendan el idioma y, que yo recuerde, libros religiosos, y la mayor parte de las frases en Tatoeba no están pensadas para esos fines concretos), así que se sabe qué vocales son porque reconocen la palabra por contexto pero iba a ser difícil automatizar la transcripción y que fuera correcto. En el caso del ruso la pronunciación de algunas vocales varía dependiendo de si es la sílaba tónica o no, así que tampoco es fácil pero quizá sea posible.
