Hello everyone,

I am looking for someone who can write or read the language of Trigrinya.

I am working on a big project for the book and simulation (Strike Fighter 2 add-on mod) with two fictional nations.  It involves the place of Eritrea and the language of Trigrinya. 

I am in a need of translating some of the texts from English into Trigrinya.  It is about one page of the texts.  I found the translation online (unofficial google translation) and I am aware that it is not always reliable.

The help with the translation are much appreciated.

Cheers

I am working on the big project for SF2 and a book with a small team.  They have been an excellent teacher too. I learned a lot from them.  The project involves two fictional nations.  The book contains the detailed information about the nations' background and timelines, flag, squadron, their insignia, various military vehicle inventory, etc. 

I used to work on the former project for SF2 known as "SF2: Alternative world:  Dhimar and Paran expansion".  Then I realized several things:

1) Dhimar and Paran are already written by TK, so I do NOT want to override his stories.  That way I can be unlimited with my creativity

2) I wasn't prepared. I realized I was lacking in the detailed knowledge about military structure, so I decided to research more about them.

3) I realized that designing two new nations for SF2 it requires a lot of times. It involves writing the stories about two nations (Background and timelines), designing the flags, squadron, their insignia, vehicle inventory, etc.  This also involves a lot of researches about the specific countries' cultures, language and their military to get idea for each nations' cultures, language and military structure.

I intend to make it semi-realistic with the balances between this world and alternative world.

I owe huge thanks to the wonderful modders in this community.  They all are the reasons why I am working on this, which lead me to project.

Two nations involves the land of Eritrea and another place next to it.  I am very fortunate that one of member in this community helped me with the Arabic languages for one of nation's scripts.  Now I need the help with Trigrinya languages.

Without revealing detailed information about the project I am working on for now, I can share two of squadron insignia:

This is for one of nation located in southern Eritrea geographically:

(NOTE: Trigrinya scripts may be incorrect. That is why I need someone who know this language to check if they are correct.)

English: 5th Squadron “Dragon”
Tigrinya:
መበል 5 ስኳድሮን "ገበል"

This is for another nation who have the conflict with this nation.

English: Squadron No. 5 "Victory"
Arabic:
السرب رقم ٥ "النصر"
Arabic (English): Alsirb Raqm 5 "Alnsr"
