3 | Wikitongues is a new project hoping document the world's 7,000 languages. | Wikitongues dia tetikasa vaovao mikendry handrakitra an-tahiry ireo tenim-pirenena 7000 manerana izao tontolo izao. |
4 | The project asks individuals to contribute videos of themselves speaking in their own language - be it German, Urdu, Swahili, or any other, and is mostly organised through its Youtube account. | Miantso ny olona ny tetikasa mba handray anjara amin'ny fanatontosana lahatsary azy ireo manokana izay mampiasa ny tenin-dreniny, mety hoe Alemaina, Urdu, Swahili na hafa izany, ary amin'ny alalan'ny kaonty Youtube no tena hanatontosana sy hizarana izany. |
5 | Currently, Wikitongues is building a platform where anyone can upload videos on their own, making this a crowdsourced project - as well as incorporating as a non-profit. | Manangana sehatra ahafahan'ny tsirairay mampiakatra ny lahatsarin'izy ireo manokana ankehitriny ny Wikitongues, manao izany ho tetikasa ifarimbonana- sy ho fikambanana tsy mitady tombontsoa ara-bola. |
6 | They hope by the end of the year to bring their current 50 videos to 100. | Manantena izy ireo fa ho tafakatra 100 ireo lahatsary 50 amin'ny faran'ny taona. |
7 | Those helping to create a database for easily accessible information are volunteers called “ambassadors” based in Switzerland, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Norway, Russia and Spain. | Mpilatsaka an-tsitrapo antsoina hoe “ambasadaoro” monina any Soisa, Zimbaboe, Afrika Atsimo, Norvezy, Rosia ary Espaina no manampy amin'ny famoronana tahiry ahafahana mahazo fampafantarana mora foana. |
8 | In documenting many different people speaking the same language from different regions, they hope, says co-founder Daniel Bogre Udell, to demonstrate a cultural application of language. | Nilaza i Daniel Bogre Udell, mpiara-manorina ny tetikasa fa amin'ny fandraketana an-tahiry ireo olona isan-karazany avy amin'ny faritra samihafa mampiasa teny iray, dia manantena izy ireo hampiseho ny fisian'ny fampiharana ara-kolontsaina ny teny. |
9 | Here is an example in English, with a speaker from from North Carolina, USA and another from South Africa: | Ity ohatra iray amin'ny teny Anglisy, ahitana mpandray fitenenana avy ao Carolina Avaratra, Etazonia sy hafa iray avy ao Afrika Atsimo: |
10 | There is also a section for polyglots, people who speak more than one language: | Misy ihany koa ny sehatra natokana hoan'ireo mahay tenim-pirenena maro, olona miteny mihoatra ny tenim-pirenena iray : |
11 | The videos include what are commonly called “minority” languages, such as K'iche (Quiché), a subgroup of the Maya language, originating in Guatemala. | Ahitana ilay antsoina mahazatra hoe “vitsy an'isa” tahaka ny K'iche (Quiché), zana-bondron'ny teny Maya, avy ao Goatemala ihany koa ireo lahatsary. |
12 | However, the group is careful not to refer to languages as either majority or minority on the website, giving equal weight to different tongues regardless of the total number of global speakers. | Na dia izany aza, malina kokoa ny vondrona ka tsy mijery ny maha-maro an'isa na vitsy an'isa ny teny ao amin'ny habaka, fa mampifandanja tsara ireo karazana fiteny manokana na firy na firy ny fitambaran'ny isan'ireo mpandray fitenena manerantany. |
13 | Wikitongues also chooses a “Language of the week” to discuss on their Tumblr blog, including links and information about each language. | Misafidy “Tenim-pirenen'ny herinandro” ihany koa ny Wikitongues ao amin'ny bilaogy Tumblr azy ireo, ahitana ireo rohy sy vaovao momba ny teny tsirairay avy. |
14 | Recently, the focus was on Basque. | Ny teny Basque ohatra no nosafidiana farany teo. |
15 | You can follow the project on Instagram and Twitter - and connect to share your own videos. | Azonao arahina ao amin'ny Instagram sy Twitter ny tetikasa - midira aterineto raha hizara ny lahatsarinao manokana . |
