Right-to-left languages coming to TwitterJanuary 25, 2012 - 22:20 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Twitter announced languages read right to left would be coming to the Twitter Translation Center, beginning with Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew and Urdu. Twitter will become fully available in those four languages later this spring, once volunteer translators have completed their work. The company said in a blog post Wednesday, Jan 25, it has made sure tweets and hashtags will work in right-to-left languages. It also says it’s “made changes behind the scenes to give right-to-left language speakers a localized user experience,” although it doesn’t specify the changes, Mashable reports. The company’s translations program, powered through a network of 425,000 volunteers, has helped make Twitter available in 22 languages to date - Traditional Chinese, Indonesian, Portuguese, Italian, Filipino, Finnish, Norwegian, Polish, Turkish, Danish, Malay, English, French, Korean, Swedish, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, German, Russian and Dutch - all of which are read from left to right.
