Comment Post #281089 Just a friendly notice, but please don't post so many questions in the span of a few minutes. It comes across as firstly, low effort (you don't post any attempt of your own to answer the question), and it creates a "block" that pushes down all the other questions in the feed.

Comment Post #281045 I'm unsure what your question is. Are you asking why -tion words can denote a process, even though English already has -ing forms? Or are you questioning if -tion words are actually used to denote processes?

Comment Post #280869 As the question has completed the move from Q&A to Meta, and the bug discussed has been fixed, I've taken the liberty of deleting the comments about it.

Comment Post #280844 @PeterTaylor Ah, I see what you mean. I admit it's also kind of weird there; but that challenge is kind of a special test run case on it's own. The next one probably will probably be a straight challenge with only one target language.

Comment Post #280895 @PeterTaylor I see, so enumerating the points that can't be "lost in translation". I'll try to do some clarification criteria in the OP, if you have any concerns bring it up there

Comment Post #280844 @PeterTaylor If you're referring to how the rules allow English -> English golfing challenges, then yes, #4 doesn't particularly make sense in that context. The entire idea of "translation" golf doesn't particularly make sense in a non-bilingual context, so there are bound to be some odd rules left o...

Comment Post #280844 @fedorqui I tried to make the rules as general as possible; This set of rule would also allow e.g. the Spanish -> English translation-golf. Also, I thought it'd suite L&L better, we're all here to learn another language (or learn something about our own), aren't we?

Comment Post #280895 @PeterTaylor I'm open to improvements to the challenge, if you'd like to suggest them! I have no experience with the Spanish translation golf, so any you have is valuable. What sort of criteria do you think would be good for this challenge?

Comment Post #280869 @Lundin I didn't think about it, since I'm not sure what you'd abbreviate in this text anyway. Regardless, I've edited the post.

Comment Post #280844 @Lundin Sure. The only limit is that it has to remain grammatical.

Answer A: Translation Golf - Welcome!
Japanese, 20 characters > コディダクトの語学コミュニティにようこそ! I'm not actually sure how "Codidact" would be converted into katakana, since nobody told me how to pronounce it.

Question Translation Golf - Welcome!
In an effort to drum up activity (given we haven't had any in over a week), I present the first translation golf! Before entering, please read the ground rules. The aim of the game is to translate a given text using as few characters as possible. The first text is quite simple, it's the we...

Answer A: Translation Golf (draft stage)
I've drafted sample translation-golf challenge post, and am planning on posting it on Saturday (if no one objects). Feel free to suggest any changes you might want to make. In an effort to drum up activity (given we haven't had any in over a week), I present the first translation golf! ...

Comment Post #280844 @fedorqui I don't see why we can't have both - the same rules would apply to an English -> English "translation" golf challenge.

Comment Post #280844 Since the site pretty much died for a week, this seem like the best way to get some more interest. I've already drafted the first translation golf post, I just need an idea for what the source text should be.

Answer A: Translation Golf (draft stage)
Ground Rules (draft) This is loosely based off of the original translation golf on StackExchange, but modified to fit a wider range of languages. Goal: Translate a given text using the minimum number of characters 1. The translation must be accurate 2. Unless otherwise stated, the transla...

Comment Post #280275 @curiousdannii https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/1047/which-is-correct-you-and-i-or-you-and-me None of the examples should use "me", *that* would be ungrammatical.

Comment Post #280645 Agree with everything except the "host on Meta" part - Q&A would make it more visible, so I think we should start there (and hey, if they check out the other Q&A category questions, all the better)
