Traditional Chinese translation (I hope)

[Guest guest]

I need help for a parent in Hong Kong who only speaks traditional

and some simple Chinese. The two of us have been going back and

forth trying to communicate through the translation sites but she

doesn't speak English and I don't speak Chinese and the translation

sites help just so much, so much doesn't translate well. (even

when I wrote " Hi Lily " that translates in Chinese to " feeds the

lily " !) Lily found our group through The Late Talker book which is

published in Chinese that she has already read. She sounds like an

awesome Mom who is out there desperately seeking help for her child.

I so wish that there was someone here that can reach out to help

them. Lily's son Jacky is 16 and from what I gather is essentially

non-verbal. He only makes simple babble like sounds like " ma ma " .

Her son has had seizures as well at some point -but I can't make out

what type of therapy he's had for speech.

She also is asking about the fish oils

(it's confusing enough trying to understand it in a language you know!)

Please email me at lisa@... if you can help Lily and Jacky.

Even if you don't speak Chinese but know someone that does that

would like to help -that would be fine too. Just someone who can

help be a go between. Here for example is her latest email to me

(that I translated at AltaVista from Chinese to English)

" you give an opinion I extremely have the confidence to you! Jacky

train; My error Jacky study language gold time Then I need to

double - double, again doubles makes up Will need your advising from

now on in me! Your field of vision is broader than me; Contacts more

medicines to grind, hoped you many advise! I am willing to make your

life the friend! Respects you Lily from HK "

When I translated my clear messages from English to Chinese to send

to Lily and then take what has translated and translate it back

again to English, it was just as hard as Lily's message above to me

to understand. Talk about a communication problem huh?!

Thank you for anyone who can help!!

,

I don't know anyone who speaks/reads or who could translate chinese

for you. However, my son does have a Chinese boy in his some of his

H.S. classes- however he doesn't speak English.. LOL. (Nor does he

have a translator)

But a thought occured to me.. Could you possibly call your local High

Schools, and see if they offer Chinese as a foriegn language? If they

do, maybe you can contact one of the students to help you? or the

teacher. Or possibly one of the community colleges, state colleges

etc.. Maybe a Chinese-American Club within your community, or a

neighboring community. Wish I could help you more.

Also, I would like to send you my deepest and dearest blessings to

you, Glenn, and the rest of your family. It must have been a very

scarey time for all of you. I'm happy to hear all is well now. Please

do let us now how the new fish oils work for him, you, and the boys.

Take care, and God Bless all of you.

Thanks to all that responded about helping Lily! The offers were

all wonderful but the best possible situation did happen for Lily in

that one of our members here who has a " late talker " herself, also

from Hong Kong (but who speaks Cantonese, Mandarin and fluent

English) has already been corresponding with Lily via email...and

the two of them have already spoken over the phone!

if you speak with Lily and she says it's OK to share some here

to either update us or so that perhaps others can help too. We are

all thrilled that you are there to help Lily so that she can best

help Jacky!

Thanks again you get the Golden Mom award of the day!

(and thanks for the kind words about Glenn -we are all doing great

and I'll send another message updating about the " XtraProEPA " we

tried for the first time yesterday)
