Let's put together a complete list of adventures!

[Aeglosdir]

It'd be great to have some back and forth so fans can use adventures even if they don't speak English (or French or Spanish or...).

Yeah that'd be great. I'm Swedish myself like Mr. Dunkelbrink so I don't speak any of those languages

So one of the tricky parts is translation of names--do you guys think that Fort Bois is Woodland Hall or Woodmen Town (the only location description is "on the edges of Mirkwood", so it could be either). Has the core book been translated into French? If so, what are the names on the French version of the map?

(Actually, now that I think about it, I would totally buy TOR maps in different languages. Just sayin'.)

Has the core book been translated into French?

Yes, as L'Anneau Unique. Here's a cropped image showing Fort-Bois:

Very cool. Woodland Hall it is!

Thanks for the clarifications Aeglosdir, I've edited the list at the top (by the way, Always interested in other Swedish TOR players; where are you based and who do you play with? )

Thanks also to Stuart for the original Word documents for Caran Gaur, I'll inbox you, and to Rue for volunteering for translation work. I guess it's best to start with the first Caran Gaur adventure. I'll be happy to help with parts of the adventure through Google translate, maybe I can also consult my mother (who teaches French and English).

I can help you somewhat: I'm french. But you can only made good traduction into your native tongue.

Hi,

French native speaker here. I have access to most/all the french adventures but translation into English is trickier if you are not a native. I can offer however support for consistency checks.

Also, I have just published a draft version of the translation of an adventure I wrote in french some time ago.

As I was working my way through Caran Gaur, it occurred to me that it could speed things up for everyone if we collected some of the technical terms ("Weary", "Wounded", etc), and made a little list of their English/French/Spanish/etc equivalents since there are different customs for capitalization/punctuation between languages which can make it hard for a translator to differentiate between "Weary" the mechanical condition, versus "weary" the adjective in the original language if they don't know them. Especially since these are not official adventures and so each author has used their discretion in how they capitalize/highlight things to begin with.

I don't have the Core rules in any language other than English, but for those who do, is it possible to make a table of the common mechanical terms? Things like Weary, Wounded, Unconscious, Treated (for Wounds), Craven, etc? I worry about missing a mechanical note in the adventure since I haven't LMed in English before and so common sense might not prompt me to notice a term is actually mechanical, not adjectival, in nature (especially for Enemy abilities, since I haven't read up on those as much). It could be pretty simple, just columns for the different languages and then going across: Weary, exténué, whatever Weary is in Spanish, etc.

It'll give us something to do in between refreshing the website waiting for the Rohan supplement... (maybe today is our day!)

Check my character sheet thread, most of the relevant terms will be there.
