التلفون المتعدد اللغات ١٦ (Polyglottal Telephone XVI)

[Ser]

After the last two clarifications^ and being told of my mistake with Xaro, I'm working on the new chains.

[Ser]

Alright, the new chains have been posted.

@Xaro: I've forced you to translate from English since nobody knows South Slavic languages except for hwhatting, the one who you're giving your translation into Croatian to.

[finlay]

oh right, you changed mine. *sigh*

[Bob Johnson]

Excuse me, I did not say to:latin.

[finlay]

Also, i would like either from latin or to latin, before you change me again, because I actually went out and got a dictionary in anticipation of this (it was cheap, and I probably would have bought it anyway, but still, it'll feel pointless if I don't get to actually use it).

[Mr. Z]

Swedish to Norwegian...? XD
This is going to be amusing...
But we've got a good setup this time.

[Qwynegold]

Swedish Norwegian Swedish? I predict that my team's text will change the least.

[installer_swan]

Am I too late to join one of the teams?

I can do

To/From: Hindi/Urdu/Tamil/English/Farsi(Persian)
Only From: Spanish/Bangla(Bengali)/Gujarati

I notice that Aeetlrcreejl says that to Bengali is possible, so I can do from Bengali to any of my four languages, though looks like only English is going to be possible since no one else is there for any of my other target languages.

cheers!

[Mr. Z]

Swedish Norwegian Swedish? I predict that my team's text will change the least.

The opposite! It will be really funny to see how I mangle the translation to Norwegian, making the second Swedish form completely different from the first one.

[treskro]

Has this begun yet?

[Ser]

Nope, redoing the chains once again. *sigh*

[Ser]

New chains posted... I'm already getting tired of this. >.<

[finlay]

Qwynegold moaned at me for giving him a from-Japanese link before... I think the problem here is that he's the only one who gives one extra language in his "to" list, so we tend to assume it's actually his from list...

[Astraios]

Can we just begin now? No more changing? Pliz?

[Nesescosac]

Oh shit, Finnish → Bengali. This is going to be great.

Yeah, he didn't say from-ja; I could go easy on him or something?

Indeed... Actually, now that you've mentioned it, he's moaned to me before about it too, in the last PT I organized. I should've known better, but somebody having an only To language is just... odd and I copied it down to my notes wrong yet again.

[installer_swan]

Oh shit, Finnish → Bengali. This is going to be great.

Indeed. Though I wish I'd gotten to do Bangla to Tamil, but we've already got 3 language families in our chain, asking for a fourth is just plain greedy.

Gracias, merci, 謝謝, 谢谢 شكراً
We do appreciate it

Fine, let's just get going... -_-

Yeah, no weird grammar please.

One of these days I'm gonna have to get off my ass and install that Japanese software on my new computer.

[Qwynegold]

So that's some archaic Japanese?

Has this thing still not started? Has a text even been chosen?

[Ser]

The texts have been sent to both chains (my Arabic translation to Zayk and a copy of the English original to Theta). The race is on.

[tiramisu]

Just got it. I'll have it sent to Risla in the next few days. It's not long at all, but I don't have time today to sit down and do it.

[tiramisu]

Sent to Risla.
