Forest garden terminology translations

RB Rakesh B Public Seen by 99

Since 2014 I have been sharing lists of commonly used terms and words for permaculture, forest gardening, and sociocracy. Each list is translated into 20+ languages and is a free resource for people (students, teachers, translators) to utilise.

They are all listed on my website http://www.rootsnpermaculture.com

The translations are done by the public (crowdsourced). The online spreadsheets are writable by the public, so anyone can update this resource.

I typically emails this to students, translators, etc before each course so they can familiarise themselves with various terms or find a way to access these terms during the courses. I have had many teachers and students saying how valuable this resource is for them, so I am sure many people would be grateful for anyone to keep it updated. So please do make use of it and feel free to add words; fill in missing words; or correct translations. Also if you want to add another language, please contact Rakesh directly.
