Translation Time

After every announcement and explanation of an activity here at Sunny Hill, we have Translation Time. While everyone is listening and paying attention, each leader gets up in front of everyone and translates what has been said into his/her language. This way, we get to hear all the different languages every day! 

We know that most of you who are reading this blog do not have English as your mother tongue, and in the spirit of CISV we have therefore added a new feature here on the blog: the Google Translation Time! On the top of the right hand side of the blog, you will find a little roll-down-menu where you may choose the language you prefer. Google will then translate the entire blog into that language. It's magic!


Please keep in mind that google translate, although an awesome and magical tool, doesn't always translate into perfect sentences... but you will at least get the gist of what's happening! And how cool does our blog look, translated into Arabic?



Enjoy!

  4. Hi Vita, Luciana and Suha - thank you for being so active with the comments! We love that you feel included in our camp life. We are enjoying this communication with you and the other parents/relatives/friends very much as well :)

    To those of us who don't read Arabic, the Arabic translation looks very exotic and beautiful :)
