As Roblox grows. More and more people who can't speak English nor type it will have a hard time fitting in. That's why there should be... an auto translate!
When you first join you will pick your language you speak or most comfortable with and everything will be translated to their language.
How will this work? Roblox will keep record of what language they speak. So if you picked English the system automatically knows you do and translate it to other people's language. So if I say Hello the system will know what language to translate it from.
That way people play roblox more often because they know what they are saying and not felling left out. And possible getting them more money.
Yes there is many languages so they wont be able to list them all, so it should be only the common ones.
FAQ
Q: How do we moderate this?
A: When the report is sent the mods would have the same system so it will recognize what language they use and translate it.
Q: This will take too long to create.
A: Yes it might will be think about it. If someone is comfortable with a game and understands it wouldn't they play? The more you play the higher the chance to buy something in that time period.
Any Questions post and I'll try to answer them. |

No support.
Here's a better idea, in my opinion:
Make a few different WEBSITE translations, based on highest non-English concentrations of players. If they have a lot of German players, for instance, make a German website translation option.
The reason I don't support, though, is because it would take AGES for them to write in a whole instant-translator. It would need to first look at the chat, search the index for a translation to the language, exchange the texts, and post it, instantly. They would also need to write in the code for SENTENCE STRUCTURES, which are extremely different from language to language.
Plus, if they misspell, say, a German word, then the system wouldn't know what to translate it to, and they'd need a solution to that.
Maybe a long time in the future, but ROBLOX is certainly not at this scale yet.

I see how it is.. Lets this thread die like nothing ever happens... |
|
|
Many people use text chat, how would "lol ur such a noob :D" be translated into a different language? |
|
|
Unrecognized words wont be translated. |
|
|
By untranslated I mean it wont translate so it will shot up "(Their language Here) noob (their language here)" |
|

@Boomboy
I can design a more-or-less accurate translation software in a few hours with open sourced encoding found around the web...
Anyway, support. |

Right... nope. Unless you're using google translate...
Honestly, all they have to do for this is import google translate's webpage translator, into the webpage, and then it'll do the rest. |
|
|
There is no point in this since most of the players have no grammar.
|
|
|
|
No, because everyone would have to use grammar for it to be an accurate translation. " ya shut up u stupid noob" would only translate "shut up stupid". |

Besides when foreign kids join roblox they'll LEARN english. So it's just good that it's English. |
