<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;
color:black">Since the start we always encouraged members to write in any language they feel fluent with being Maltese or English , this was fine for many members since most of them are Maltese and can perfectly understand English and Maltese. The problem we were encountering is when foreign members start reading a post then get lost when someone replies in Maltese.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;
color:black">As we still do not want to restrict members to writing in English, we have devised a page translation system which allows members and visitors to change the language of the site according to their preference. Keep in mind that the technology used is not Artificial Intelligence and some grammatical mistakes may occur but that aside minor translation errors the system works very well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Here is how to change language.</p>
<p>Consider the following thread the top part is in english while the second is in Maltese.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<img width="550" height="458" border="1" alt="" src="/images/image/trans1.jpg" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Go to the lower bar, select Language and then the desired language.</p>
<p><img width="490" height="452" border="1" alt="" src="/images/image/trans2.jpg" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Below is the same post with English selected</p>
<p><img width="550" height="416" border="1" alt="" src="/images/image/trans3.jpg" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And here is the same post with Maltese language select</p>
