Usually when i login to cucumis.org i go directly to "English", but today my e-mail referred me to the Croatian version of the site, and i saw some pretty bad mistakes. E.g. "translated by" is translated as "prevedeno mimo" which is an obvious prove that whoever translated that used an automatic translating tool, cause only a machine would translate that "by" in this case. Also "edit" is translated as "izdavati" which in real life might be a possible choice, but not here. Again, automatic translating. My question, now that I got to it is whether I can find those mistakes and correct them, or if not, what DO i do?
I don't know how this sounds to those who don't speak Croatian but trust me those are some huge mistakes, "prevedeno mimo" can be translated as "translated without" and "izdavati" is "to publish".
PS I'll give a cookie to anyone who can count how many times I used the word "translate" in this text

Hi Maski, it's a bug of the email notifications. You shouldn't get a link to the croation version of cucumis as it's not ready.
By the way, thank you for your translations and I hope you can help checking the files when they are all translated.

You don't have to check your own translations for now. Next step is for me. I will merge the croatian translations done on cucumis into 4 or 5 language files. Then, If you don't mind, I will send them to you by email and then you can check, correct and translate directly in the files. After you sedn me back the files, we can set up the croatian version of cucumis
I will use your registration email if you don't mind to send you the files.
