Hello everyone!

We are currently looking for volunteers who are fluent in speaking foreign languages to help us build international communities.

Thank you very much, and we look forward to hearing from all of you!

Cheers,

Your BrillKids Team

I would also suggest that anyone who can speak/type a foreign language to please write an introductory post in that language the appropriate foreign language board we have created.

If your language is not there, please let us know and we'll open one up for you!

I can also help out in the Chinese boards (simplified Chinese).

Maybe I start a thread on the board to see who else speak Chinese?

Hi Lappy and KL,
Can you describe in more detials what you expect of these people? I am more then willing to help with Czech language if I know exactly what you want me to do.
KL, concerning the introductory post, it would be nice if you suggest in English what you want us to translate and I am more than happy to do so in Czech. Do you want something describing this project and this product or is it supposed to be just something like: Hi, is someone here speaking Czech?  laugh

I just wrote this in Chinese in the traditional Chinese board:

"Hi everyone! Are there any other members here who speak Chinese? I would love to meet other people who are also interested in early learning!"

Anything else you want me to say/do?

Niro, thanks for that first post! smile

Martina, something like what Niro posted would be sufficient.  The intention of these foreign language boards is to let people who prefer to write in a foreign language to ask questions and share their experiences with us and other members of the community.

So, perhaps you could post something like what Niro did to get the ball rolling and see which other Czech-speaking members there are here.  If these users have any questions about Little Reader or anything else, you could answer them or post here or on another relevant board about the query, and we can reply to you so you can pass the message back?

And lastly, feel free to ask other Czech friends of yours to join, because language will now no longer be a barrier! smile

Joanne, thanks for your volunteering too! Perhaps you can also post something there to get the ball rolling?

I have already posted something similar in Czech.
Concerning my friends - I have already talked to many of them. But they are not as excited as I am. I brought this excitement and knowledge from USA where I lived. But I will keep talking about early education because they do not really realize what they are missing Sad and how beneficial this could be for their kids...

Thanks, Martina!
Yes, I think some cultures/societies are more accepting of early learning and others not so much.
Well, let's see whether there are other fellow-Czech-speakers here either now or in the future!

Excellent, excellent work everyone!  LOL

I must say that I am so pleased that there are so many people out there who are willing to help us out in making the forums multilingual!   yes We hope that you will also invite more people (family and friends) to participate in our forums.

Since more people can be comfortable with writing in their own language, this will surely grow our community!

Hallo, everyone! That is so great! I can help with anything related to Russian! And I think I can encourage my husband to get envolved and we could provide some of the Farsi translations.
Thanx for doing such a great job!

Thanks!
