Nowadays translations are not only done by human beings of flesh and blood but more and more frequently by machines as well, especially where it concerns documents on the Internet. In order to help these translators and to provide the best data possible to be fed into the computer, this site offers two special documents for translations from This Language into two other languages.

The other is Zhe Zhong or Zhezhong Yuyan (Putonghua), which is the language written and spoken by the largest part of the world population of those languages which are not related to This Language and Deze Taal. While these two documents are essential for translations into Deze Taal and Zhezhong Yuyan, they should at the same time inspire or guide those humans and machines that produce translations into languages which cannot (yet) be dealt with here:
