Scotranslate is a user contributed community translation project. Here's a quick run down of how it works. If you have any questions, e-mail us at info@scotranslate.com
Visitors can search for translations the web, by SMS, or
Windows Live® Messenger
These services are both free of charge. Our SMS service carries a charge of 50p per text and is used to pay for the upkeep of this site. To use this, text SCOTS followed by your phrase to 82055.
If a word or phrase isn't recognised by Scotranslate, it is submitted for user translation
Once a registered user clicks 'Start Translating', they will be presented with words and phrases at random, one at a time.
- If the user sees a previous translation for this word/phrase that they agree with, they vote for it
- Otherwise, they enter their own interpretation and press suggest
Once a word or phrase gets 5 votes, it will appear in the Scotranslate.com dictionary. If it's voted bad 5 times, it will be removed.
Users may vote only once for each word or phrase and both Suggestions and Translations count towards equally towards your total contribution.
