Let's Translate The "How To Get Your Blood Sugar Under Control" Flyer

My site stats show that quite a few people visiting this blog and the main Blood Sugar 101 web site translate these pages into languages other than English using translation software. I also get requests every now and then to translate the site into other languages. Since the site and blog represent several hundred pages of text, this would be a massive undertaking and since the site is frequently updated, it isn't one I can currently take on.

But what I can do is translate the most important information on the site into other languages. So to do this, I'm asking those of you who are native speakers of languages other than English to help me. Here's how:

1. Download the "How to Get Your Blood Sugar Under Control" flyer. The US version represents blood sugar levels in mg/dl. The Rest of the world version does it in mmol/L. Choose the one appropriate to your audience. You'll find them here:

a. US Version

b. Rest of the World Version

2. Translate the flyer into your chosen language. Put the final version into Word or RTF format. Please embed fonts when you save the file if you use a non-Latin alphabet.

3. Email the file with your translation as an attachment. You'll find an email link on the Blood Sugar 101 main site. (I had to remove the one posted here as it immediately attracted spammers.) Be sure to tell me what language you are writing in. If your file uses a non-Latin alphabet please let me know which one.

I'll keep track of which ones I already have here to save people duplicating efforts. Then I will upload these translated flyers to the main site and put a link to them on the web page for How to Get Your Blood Sugar Under Control.

Thanks!
