A bit of help with a special project... · 2:35pm Feb 23rd, 2014
Morning folks. As some of you are aware I'm working on a couple of short stories in the Stardust timeline to hold people over until Season 4 ends for FiM. I'm making good progress on the first story but I find myself in need of some help. Specifically, I need some translation from English to Russian done. As I am only familiar with English (and I don't think I could write a story in COBOL), I'll need to ask my ever helpful readers for assistance. If anyone is able to translate for me, leave a comment and I'll send you a PM as to what I need.
Thanks!
I'll get it translated for you, my very special somehuman (or girlfriend, if you prefer) happens to know the language pretty well. I'll bribe her to translate it asap, so please upload it somewhere and send me the link :-). If there's a lot of content I'll probably have to bribe her more, but hey, if that means more Stardust then I'm more then willing to help :-P.
I've finished re-reading the story for the third time three days ago, btw :-).
Google translate should work just fine for 'live' languages.
Not my forte, but should you ever need assistance with German , Im available.
...I can give you Icelandic?

I actually used google translate for some of the german text in Stardust and the results were... less than satisfactory according to some of my german speaking readers. >_>
I'm also at work at the moment and things just picked up so I'll send my requirements as soon as I have a free moment.

The German wasn't bad, but from what I remember it seemed a bit forced, I don't remember for certain, but it seemed a bit formal to me, considering when it was used and under what circumstances :-).
I was born in Russia and am curently living in Germany, my skills are a bit rusty and I don't have word, so it will be tricky to write in the needed language, but I'm ready to help however I can. I also could probably ask my mother about the grammar parts.
I am Russian. :)
As European X-COM base is in Poland, if you ever need some help with Polish, I'm your man.
Sorry cant help you with Russian. But if you ever need help whit Swedish feel free to ask
Are these a series of One Shots that take place on Earth and Equestria or is it only on Equestria?

I have two currently planned. I'll be posting another blog post once my first story is done as well as giving a hint as to the other story. I can say now that one story will take place on Earth during the Invasion, the other will take place on Equestria after the events of Stardust but before MM.

Uh huh, you know I'm tempted to make a reference to that movie but it'd be to easy.
Sorry Arad... I'd love to help, but I only know three languages: English, Bad-English, and Southernese.
I would end up using google translate, and we all know how reliable that is lol.
How many words do you need to translate? If it isn't your usual chapter size I will gladly help.
I suppose I have noone to blame but myself for not posting earlier.
Thanks are in order to everyone who has offered their services! I really appreciate it! I've spoken with one of the volunteers and gotten my translation done, so at this time I don't think I'll need any further help though I know who to ask now that I've got folks volunteering.
Thanks again!
