Ez így van. De vannak vegyes mondatok is; pl.: Hello, Tom. Hogy hívnak, Tom? Ez kolbász, Tom. Vagy valami hasonlók.

Ja, hogy ez a legnépszerűbb mondatokhoz íródott!

@Cabo You have a point. It would be interesting to compile the rankings of the most popular sentences in the last month alone. This would allow us to see how the situation evolves now that the most obvious sentences you mention are already widely covered.

Update of my previous post:
Original sentences within a given calendar week that attracted the most (direct and indirect) translations in the following 3 weeks.
The main point is that translations are to be in different languages and by different users. So, when a user translates their own sentence into different languages, these translations won’t count. Nonetheless, they can serve as a base for new (indirect) translations by other users.
I thought this little “competion” could give an idea which kind of recently added sentences members find interesting to translate. (hm…)

Intresting idea.
For a start, I tried to find out how many translations recently added original sentences got on average (by the standards defined: counting only one translation per language and user).

Quite astonishing:
In week 34, there were 2007 original English sentences: on average they got 0,239 direct translations and 0,264 translations including indirect ones.

Week 34
eng: 2007 / 0,239 / 0,264
deu: 100 / 0,25 / 0,28
fra : 62 / 0,5 / 0,62
rus: 393 / 0,01 / 0,022
por : 76 /1,11 / 1,447
fin : 7 /0 /0

Week 33
eng : 1196 / 0,392 / 0,497
deu : 45 / 0,022 / 0,088
fra : 76 / 0,105 / 0,223
rus: 487 / 0,024 / 0,029
por : 126 / 0,690 / 0,944
fin : 2 / 0 / 0


Does that mean Portuguese is much more popular than English?

This number only means that how many sentences are connected your sentences.

"If it's <1 this means you add a lot of sentences without translations."
If I write only one sentence (and not translate it), but 8 other contributor tranlates that, then my tcnt/scnt number is 8.

So this is a measure of

1. how popular your language is (as a foreign language)
2. how convenient (easy, short, simple) your sentences are to translate
3. how many sentences you write as translations of others, rather than as original sentences.

I would say that it is not particularly virtuous to aim for a high number here.

When that checkbox is checked only sentences created by natives counted. That is, if a member has 3 sentences and all of them are translated once but only one sentence belongs to a native then the ratio will be 1/3.
