Although I don't speak a word of anything but English (no, really!  ), I was wondering if people thought it would be a good idea to try to make a concerted effort to post some titles that might be of particular interest to read in the language it was written in. Would this be a waste of time or not? In particular, I would not want to make matters worse by posting unreadable garbage. If it's worth trying, does someone have some suggestions for some authors and titles we're missing that would be good to start with? |
Here's a checklist, of sorts, which languages to start looking at, namely,
Top 30 Languages by Number of Native Speakers.
I would expect, though, that the current ebook creation tools will have
issues supporting ALL the international characters that these languages require.
Worth a try, though...
I once tried converting
esperanto .IMP ebooks, but they did not display most of the non-english characters/letters. Oh well, at least we know any .IMP ebooks WILL indeed look like gibberish (in fact, will have those annoying '?'s) and not convert well using mobi2IMP. You've been warned...
