Adding Your Text Language
Thank you for your interest to add your text language to the His Hands Reader lexicon. This will help the deaf and hearing in your country to learn to read. It will also help their hearing family members to learn hand signs so they can communicate with their loved one.
Please send me a email note [ HHReader3 (at) gmail.com ] to tell me that you which language that you would like to translate for His Hands Reader. I will send you the Excel Spread sheet with the HHR lexicon. You can type your 1742 translated words into the spread sheet using the Unicode font and your national script.
There are just a few guidelines to follow...
1) Choose the most simple common word that fits the lexicon meaning
2) If it takes two or more words to say the meaning then separate the words by a "_". For example in English "ambulance" is one word but in Russian it is two words... "скорая_помощь"
3) Try to not have any leading or trailing spaces on the words as you type. This will make things easier for me as I load them into the program database.
Are you ready to add your language? Find you language here.
Thank you!
