If most people can speak English why should I bother speaking their language?

Travelling to another country is like entering someone else’s home. When visiting another country, you should always show your host the utmost respect & courtesy. The best way to do this is to make an effort to speak in your host’s native tongue. Your host won’t expect you to speak fluently in their own language, but they will appreciate you making the effort.

I speak a language other than English. Can I translate the Order of the Stick for my game site?

Giant In the Playground Games
At this time, the translation program is on indefinite hold. Some of the existing translations apparently suffered from accuracy issues, and all suffered from a lack of support from the translator, most of whom faded away after translating only a fraction of the strip's run. Also, there was no promotion or advertisement by the translators in their native language, resulting in a great deal of work for very, very few hits.
