Dear Friends,

The sugar translation marathon was called Miski Pachamama [sweet earth]
2010. We are currently looking forward for a second and third versions,
where we would love to translate sugar to other native languages, starting
with Shippibo, Ashaninka and Arawak.


To help, please contact us.



Queridos Amigos,

La maratón de traducción de sugar se llamó Miski Pachamama [tierra dulce]
2010. Nos encantaria traducir sugar a otras lenguas nativas, en una segunda
y tercera versión, iniciando con Shippibo, Ashaninka y Arawak.



Para ayudar, por favor contactenos.
