English to Tamil. It is a huge endeavour.
I am not using any automated translations except to find esoteric translations (using Google Translate). Many idioms and phrases also have to be localized, so it is an intellectual challenge.
Alexander Dumas' writing is also quite beautiful and even in the limited number of chapters I have completed translating there are some excellent narratives. I am enjoying it.
My idea is to eventually publish it as a bi-lingual ebook, perhaps it would help people who are learning English/Tamil.
- ilamparithi 4y agoInteresting. Are you manually typing in Tamil or are you using a speech to text software?
- vivegi 4y agoI use a Surface tablet as my writing device and have a Tamil Input Method Editor (IME) for Windows installed. It does the English-to-Tamil transliteration and that helps.
