A polyglot translation System was introduced into Gamagori city’s homepage.
Gamagori introduced a polyglot translation system into its official homepage. We can translate Japanese into English, Chinese, and Korean now. We will be able to translate Japanese into Spanish and Portuguese from January next year.
The object in this action was that foreigners who cannot read Japanese will get information like administrative information by reading it.
It seems to be easy system. Just one click let you read your own languages. It is believed that this system would help foreigner who live in Gamagori get emergency information. For example, when disaster happens, they will get information of the disaster.
I think this is happy news for foreigner living in Gamagori. As priority is safety for everyone, people should get trustworthy information equally. I realized that Gamagori city is trying to add more translation. When I left my garbage bags in an open collection area, I found the explanation board with for languages like Japanese, English, Chinese, and Portuguese. I hope it helps foreigners living in Gamagori.

Introduction
- Takano
- Gamagori city, Aichi preficture, Japan
- Hello everyone! My name is Takano. I was born in Gamagori a city in Aichi prefecture where the nearly center of Japan. I am a university student now majoring in foreign language. I like studying English and Chinese culture and languages. When I was a freshman, I had to live alone near my university and last year I was also away from Gamagori. The reason why is that I was studying abroad in New Zealand for 10 months. Through living in different cities, I realized that what a comfortable city Gamagori is for me! There are several reasons why I think Gamagori is comfortable place. I am going to introduce reasons once every one or two weeks. I hope you will enjoy reading my blog.

返信削除What a nice system for foreigners it is!
返信削除That's the real service, I believe.
Are these actual translations of the relevant pages or just access to an online translation program? Those programs usually produce incomprehensible translations.Have you ever seen what comes out of them? But it's good that the city realises the importance of communicating with all its tax payers.
返信削除yeah how nice system it is^^
返信削除I think that there're lots of effects especially when disaster happens.
It would be very helpful if these translations work acculately. I hope their life would go smoothly.
