We appreciate that some non-native English speakers interested in attending the Gathering might
want some help with their slides, talks, competitions, Saturday activities or similar.
It's also possible that they might have questions they're not confident they can ask in English.
Feel free to send us questions in your native language if necessary, and we will see what we can do.
Please understand that may not have anyone able to read what you send, and that our answers may be in English.
If you tell us the English name of your native language that may help us work out if we can find someone
who can read it.
We will have some volunteers willing to look at slides / competitions and comment on the English on them.
We may even have some volunteers willing to listen to (parts of) attempts at talks via Skype, or recordings of
them, and make comments. The volunteers will not necessarily have any knowledge of your native language
though we will make some attempt to find one who is available if we have any such.
If some urgent problem arises you can't handle in English, we can try to find someone else at the event who speaks
your language natively or do the best we can with one of our volunteers. Please understand that we can
make no guarantees at all about this. Best endeavours only.
Since we only.
We are looking at accepting talks in non-English languages in 2021 languages, so it is possible that someone might want assistance with a language
other than English. This is probably not something the MJ organizers can help with directly as they are all native English speakers. But
if you want to give a talk in a language which is not your native language and for some reason you don't know anyone who can
help we are even willing to see if we can find an attendee who is a native speaker of that language who can help you.
If you want to give (or attend) a talk in a language other than English, see
