| Translation Project for Discover-Cookbook | ||
|
|

| ## Abstract | ||
| The discover-cookbook is a valuable resource for culinary enthusiasts. Translating the content will make it accessible to a broader audience, fostering a global community of users. The project involves generating translations for the discover-cookbook, integrating language selection switches, updating translations as content changes, and engaging translators to contribute. |

Why the comment about culinary enthusiast? Seems out of place.
Also need to captialize the acronym, DISCOVER Cookbook.

My apologies, it's a typo, I was writing compassionate.
I'll keep that in mind.
| **What We Are Doing:** Translating the entire content of the discover-cookbook into multiple languages. | ||
|
|
||
| **Technical Approach:** | ||
| - Evaluate and select a reliable translation tool or service (e.g., Google Translate, Microsoft Translator). |

Hmm, is there a better way than just running the content through an AI translation tool? There is a lot of nuance to this guide and we need to have readers who will catch that. I was thinking more of working with translation communities that could provide the translation and feedback, e.g. https://translatewiki.net/
We could also incorporate our own service like: https://pootle.translatehouse.org/
But if we are just going to be piping to Goolge Translate, I don't see much value over the people doing that themselves.

For some more context on why AI translations are not sufficient, see for example this blog post I wrote when we were starting on the translation effort for scientific python websites: https://blog.scientific-python.org/scientific-python/translations/

Sounds right, I actually didn't knew about the community who could provide translations. It would be better if we use the translation community, as it stands out and people will engage
Made a proposal for the projeect DISCOVER-Cookbook to plan the translation of the cookbook.
