hello, first of all, I’m so happy to be the first one to comment about it.I’m 17 years old from Egypt and I’m good at English but I sometimes read(or hear)words in your stories that I don’t understand and I just guess it.I really LOVe English language and your stories! Translating the stories is very helpful and I’m sure it will make your site very popular. Thanks!
Dear Distant One, I’m really pleased you find the translation helpful. We think it’s a good feature, but the hard part is making people realise that it’s available. So I am really glad that you have tried it out. Thank you.
My mom can use this.Thanks Storynory!!!!!!
From my point of view, it’s the best website I have ever seen.
strongly,I recommend this fantastic website for all english learners.
Tip:It’s very helpful to print the story and listening to the lovely voice of Natasha

Are you ever going to have any stories in American Sign Language? I know you have a variety of languages, but it would be nice to add ASL if you could? This is a very neat website.
keep up the great work!
Dear Shelly, thanks for the nice idea. We only do stories in English at the moment, though you can click the texts for a quick translation. I’m not quite sure how we would do that in American Sign Language. But perhaps one day we will figure that out. It is a cool idea.
Thank You For Your Kind

Dear Zahra, Many thanks for letting me know about your language. We use Google Translate,
http://translate.google.com/support/toolkit/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=147837
And they have recently added Farsi. I will have to see how to implement this on Storynory.
i love this website but no translation to turkish when i double click on word
when can you put a swedish or maybe a spanish story next time
I love this site.
Thank you!!
^*^
why doesnt add to turkish but i want to learning English
Dear Saban, I’m sorry we don’t have Turkish on the translate program at the moment. It’s not currently in the service we are using to do this. I’d like to see if this is a way I can add it myself, but it isn’t entirely straightforward for me.
