Google Translate in Ghana (Ewe Chronicles)

I couldn't attend day 2 of the Google Ghana translation exercises due to a meeting I had to attend elsewhere (Yes on a Sunday, what is your problem? my work is that tedious sometimes) so back to what I was saying;
My brother attended and from his report this is what my other comments and conclusions are;
Its just interesting how these things are going on. to be honest Ghana isn't the only country with such problems am not certain of Nanjala's (The Google Kenya rep) comment when she said "The translation for each language usually takes two days, it took you all one day and its good work, Congratulations!" hmmmmm well very encouraging and I would have probably made the same comment when I needed people for day 2. hahahahahhahaha (ok cut out the jokes) to the point, lets just say its normal we could have been extra ordinary though, by getting the right people for the job. maybe am taking this whole thing seriously like it was the world cup heheheh lets just skip it. enough of it right? Ghana has successfully translated all the required text and data presented by Google in Ga and Ewe and its waiting for scrutiny and approval. Good Job!
And the Akans, Greaaat Job, You are good to go and you are already gone. Am proud. lets just not get controlled lets control. its not about what they want cos in the end they will give them back to us. lets set the rules, lets not follow them cos we have not set them yet.
All thesame about the translation, lets just be better next time.... Gambatte Ghana, Gambatte!!!
