I was interested in a story when I hit a roadblock. My German is not quite up to speed, as in.... non-existent.
The words this person wrote seemed interesting and pertaining to the article, however, each time I encounter this I need to copy and paste in translate.google to see what was being said.
Considering the purpose of a Decentralized Social Platform is to have people from many regions of the world participating, I figured it would be good to have items be translated based on our personal preferences. I, for example, would choose English in my settings page.
From there, anytime I stumbled upon the below, SteemLate (Steem + Translate), would kindly provide me the words in English. If I chose Spanish, then it translate the target words into Spanish for me etc.
Here you can see an example. Elyaque is writing in English, therefore no translation is needed since I have set my default language to English. However, achim86's message has been translated on top to English for me, while his/her original text still shows below.
Finally, you will see that SteemLated made it known to me in the circle that their comment was translated on my behalf from German to English.
Thoughts?
