Chinese
We've had a couple of people offer to do the Chinese translation recently. This thread is for them to connect and collaborate :)

Hi all, the zh-Hant translation is nearly completed after a call to action in the g0v.tw community while the #CongressOccupied event in Taiwan continues.
Please help reviewing the translations.
Meanwhile I noticed the language menu now has Chinese (Taiwan). Usually we have Chinese (Traditional) and "正體中文" - unless we are expecting totally different UI strings for people from HK. What do people think?

Do we currently have browser language detection? or is it zh-Hant is not enabled for client header matching?

Use zh-Hant for traditional Chinese in language menu Closed Fri 28 Mar 2014 5:07AM
Usually we use zh-Hant (taditional Chinese) and zh-Hans (simplified Chinese) as zh-Hant is used in tw, hk, and sg, unless the regions have very differently vocabulary.
I'd say we just use zh-Hant for loomio.

you're the expert.
do you want it in roman characters or in chinese characters? you'll notice we have a trend of representing languages in their native language and script

The reality is Chinese People use "Taditional Chinese" (正體中文) as written language in formal who lives in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore.
在台灣、香港、新加坡的華人，實際上使用正體中文（Taditional Chinese）作為正式的書面語。
