Am I to understand you are looking only at those specific languages, or are you accepting for more, but those above are the priority?

We are always looking for more translations of My Opera, but our traffic reports indicate that we are getting a lot of hits from these countries.

If you want to help translate My Opera to a different language than what's listed, feel free to contact us!

Matheusnom4d3br Tuesday, August 24, 2010 12:58:37 PM

I gave up translating for having some problems, like this one:

"The page you are looking for is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

Need to translate a lot of things twice, or more... This issues were solved?

INDONESIA MERDEKA...!!!

NutzShells Wednesday, August 25, 2010 9:09:58 AM

Excuse me, but there is no such thing as "Bahasa Indonesian". It's either "Bahasa Indonesia" OR "Indonesian".

Bahasa literally means "language", and "Indonesian" is the English name of the language itself.

so it's like you're saying "Norsk Language" huh?
awww

Native Indonesian speaker with not-so-shady English here,
Would be happy to help, but can't say I'm qualified enough. don't have the time actually bigsmile

I'd like to help with Russian translation

Brennan Duncan, Hhughrock Wednesday, August 25, 2010 12:42:35 PM

We don't have to be able to speak the language right? I can write in 2 of the above languages, but I'm still working on the speaking of them. I don't know if there is some audio thing we have to do. Frankly, I'm still new here. It'd be much appreciated if someone could assist in this matter. Thank you.
