    Hi guys!

    It's strange to have to be posting here in this section after all the years of being an X-Simmer.

    Recently I started working on some international versions of the SimXperience website.

    I was hoping some of the German folks here could give me an idea of how well the translator is doing so far. It's pretty uncomfortable leaving your brand wording in the hands of someone else :)

    All in all its not bad at all :D

    I do not have enough spare time to read all pages (but we could talk about it) but the first page looks very good. Its surprising how good the automatic translation is today, specially for such technical orientated descriptions.

    One thing a got attraction:

    Code:
    SimXperience ist ein premier Motion-Simulator-Hersteller mit Erfahrung in der Elektronik, engineering, Fertigung und Software-Entwicklung. Unsere Produkte sind genutzten weltweit Indriver Bildungseinrichtungen, Häuser, Simulation-Zentren und Race Driver Development Programme.
    Should be better:

    SimXperience ist ein Simulator Hersteller mit jahrelanger Erfahrung in der Entwicklung und Fertigung von Komplettsystemen. Unsere Produkte werden weltweit genutzt von Rennfahrer-Ausbildungseinrichtungen sowie Simulator- und Entertainment-Zentren.

    Edit: Oh, i´ts not translated automatically?

    Hi Bernard
    Congratulations to your new German site! :clap: You must have a very professional and experienced translation service. They have done an excellent job.
    You can be proud of your site. One can always argue about wording and expression – at the end it's also a question of preference.
    I have seen some commas missing or capitals. An important question is how much effort in which time you want to spend to improve it from 95% to 99% ;D

    Thanks Raceray. I at first auto-translated and the feedback I got was not good so I found a translator.

    I think there are still a few pieces not yet finished by the translator.

    For me it's impossible to tell if the translator does a good job so I have to ask :)
