Hakka

Thank you for contributing to the Hakka translation of Blockly. I am afraid I am ignorant about Hakka. Could you tell me:

  • What direction the script is written in? The options in Blockly are either right-to-left or left-to-right (not up-to-down).
  • Can your translation be used for other dialects of Chinese?
  • How do you write Hak-kâ-fa in Hak-kâ-fa Pinyin (if that's the right term)?

I'm also asking the same questions of the other translator, User:Anson2812.

I am sorry that I enter the wrong page.

You didn't enter the wrong page. I asked the question twice, since I didn't want to overlook either translator. I'm posting her so Jetlag knows the question has been answered on your talk page.

Thanks again, both of you, for your contributions.

OK, I would like to answer your questions.

1. The script direction of Hakka is left-to-right. 2. Hakka is a Chinese dialect, it's different from other Chinese dialects. You may deem it an independent language that coded by Chinese character. 3. We use "Hak-kâ-fa" as Romanize script, "客家話" in Chinese character, "Hakka" in English.

It was pleasure to answer your questions. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.
