So did you a post in English first and then redo it in Korean? Just want to make sure.
And if so how did the Korean version do payment wise against the original English version?
This is a cool idea.
I wrote Steemit is A Test in English. That one did very well, making it to trending page. So, I chose that one to get translated. I am fairly sure it won't do as well in Korean....obviously because I don't speak it.
Hello my friend @stellabelle
I saw your posting. Actually I see you are korean. ><
Because your Korean posting is really perpact!
I posted about 40% of my earnings on how I contributed to the community yesterday.
I am currently writing one writer every week, giving a Si Project celebration (100SBD) and making his writing full power voting + all resteem.
And I wrote that people who earn more income should share more in steemitt.
I think 50% would like to have a culture of donating for others.
I will try harder for newbie.
This was my one year thoughts and actions.
By the way, today I read a lot of your thoughts about the future of steemit.
I think there is more work to do in the future.
So I think you need a steemit leader like you and hope you get better!
I'm doing her translations in Korean :)
This is a good service , I am sure many people will connect with @zoethehedgehog due to the growth of Korean community. Thanks for sharing.
It is always difficult the language and the translators I am not so exact when translating. The message in Korean was still understood
Nice I have been following her and when i get back into posting health articles or something I feel needs sharing with more ppl i will def. use her to translate to reach more ppl. Thank you Stellabelle
Ciao Bella
Ciao! I hope you get the bitshares deal resolved! I haven't used it for that yet....will do it at some point though.
Thank you I appreciate everything @stellabelle we will catch up later ;)
Just out of curiosity Why are you translating your blogs to korean?
there are many reasons, but the top reason is that there are more Steemit users from Seoul Korea than any other city in the world. The second reason is that I have a degree in Asian Studies, and I speak Japanese (I'll be getting translations of my top ones into Japanese too). I've lived in Asia and I'm familiar with the culture. I see the need to bridge the divide between USA and Asia, so this a great opportunity to do so. I am considering having my best articles translated into Japanese and Korean, and having a different account for that....still trying to decide.
Third reason is simple: most of the Korean community probably doesn't understand the history of Steem, and why and how the founders, @ned and @dantheman created Steem. Education is a big part as well.
I am also in the process of learning Korean, which I think will not be too hard. Might be good to connect others who are also learning
So awesome! I'm really glad to see it. I'm very encouraged you can buy and sell this service on steemit. It warms my heart.
I think your project should be a big hit and you obviously have appropriate content. You are so right about the need for connection. You will be rare as a Westerner reaching out. I read the kr posts that have English at times and there are some super good people posting. I'm sure you are already connected with them.
My son learned very basic written Korean for some class and he said it was easy, but it sure does not look like it to me.
Thanks for the response. I have seen a lot of posts with KR tag so it makes sense.
Personally, i think the reason that S. Korean and Japan are adopting Bitcoin faster than other countries is because their governments are more friendly towards cryptocurrency. Bitcoin was made a legal currency in Japan in April of 2017 and it was the very first country to do so. I think this could be one very big reason that crypto is getting boosted....many Westerners have very little clue about what is happening in Asia, as far as economics.
Or as far as anything. I tell people from the us I am in Bangkok and they say "Isn't that in China? You better get out now!"
I'm thinking the average person in the us will be far behind the curve on crypto. Too much fear over there.
Awesome!! I think it's going to be really helpful for #kr Steemians :)
Thank you, so much!
Awesome, I'm really looking forward to reading her articles, especially the one regarding interracial dating. I have a couple of cousins who are half Chinese and they've had to deal with being "exoticised" (I'm sure that's not a word) all their adult lives.
yeah, i noticed the same thing when i lived in Japan. The American guys there just wanted to find a submissive Japanese wife. It was kind of gross actually.
Thank you for sharing @stellabelle. This will make it much easier to bring Steemit members together and hopefully bring more people in.
How language fascinates me!
To think that someone somewhere can understand all those symbols (mind blowing)! Good one though, you'll be able to reach a larger community. I guess we should all be thinking along these lines.
Well, I have good reasons to engage with the Asian community as I lived in Japan many different times, and I speak Japanese (at a low level now....). The Japanese pop culture is really bizarre and interesting, plus they are leading the way towards Bitcoin adoption. Many reasons to be inspired by Asia now.
That's great, haven't really considered learning an Asian language yet, maybe in future. You are right, many reasons to be inspired.
Congratulation both of you !
Best of luck my friends !!
