We are pleased to announce the launch of a full-scale translation program for Ethereum.org, which will translate the website and other resources into more than 15 languages.
Ethereum is a global project, and it is critical that Ethereum.org reflect our global community. Since the relaunch of the website, our team has made it a priority to organize a translation program that can ensure that Ethereum resources are accessible to everyone, regardless of nationality or language.
Today, we are delighted to launch our first full translation: a Korean version of the website, available now at ethereum.org/ko. In the coming weeks, our program will expand with an initial focus on completing translations in Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Russian, German, and Italian. This initial set of languages was chosen based on search volume for Ethereum and related terms, as well as traffic to Ethereum-related websites.
While this effort initially focuses on translating Ethereum.org, over time it will expand to include translations of important community resources such as documentation, guides, blog posts, and more.
The translation program will be a combination of volunteer-driven translations, project management from the Ethereum Foundation team, and professional translation services when needed to fill gaps or provide audits.
Are you interested in helping with the translation effort for a specific language? We are looking for volunteers from the global Ethereum community to join specific language teams. We encourage you to Learn more and get involved here..
Ethereum is a critical infrastructure for all of humanity, and Ethereum.org should reflect the diversity we see at hackathons and regular events around the world. With today’s launch of ethereum.org/ko and the Ethereum.org translation program, we’ve gone a step further to reflect what’s most important to our ecosystem: our community.
Special thanks to Taeyeon Kim, who led the translation program, and the team of volunteers who translated ethereum.org/ko: Daniel Jee, Hyungsuk Kang, Jeongmoo Heo, Jumin Lee, Sangphil Kim, Suhun Kim, Wanseob Lim, and Yeong Hun Ryu.
