Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
Microsoft has added Tibetan to the list of languages on its translation App, the latest 12 languages to be added brings the total to over 100 languages which are spoken as native language by 84.6 million people. Phayul reports that people who have tested it say the software “gives a literal translation of words absent of contextual meaning”, ie it is less accurate for complex and contextualised sentences.
