[DE > EN] Ich bin ja nicht allein.

[DE > EN] Ich bin ja nicht allein. - Lemmy.ca

I think this means “I’m not alone,” but can’t figure out why the “ja” is there. Would it not make sense if it said “Ich bin nicht allein”?

Emprender no tiene que ser un camino solitario. En las cooperativas, el esfuerzo individual se transforma en éxito compartido. En nuestra comunidad de traductores, cooperativismo significa:

🤝 Transparencia: comunicación clara y sin burocracia
👍 Sinergia: apoyo y colaboración en proyectos de gran volumen o complejidad
🙌 Respaldo: estabilidad y crecimiento con riesgos distribuidos
👏 Dignidad: tarifas justas y remuneraciones a tiempo, independientemente del ciclo de pago del cliente
🤙 Libertad: flexibilidad y confianza fundamentadas en la responsabilidad mutua

Hmmm... I've had my attention called to Kindle's automated translation service. There are presently only two translations available: German to English, and English to Spanish.
Spanish translations would open up a LOT of markets. But I'm not sure that any of my books, except maybe Becoming Real and perhaps Agency, are actually good candidates for auto-translation. I think nearly all of the others make extensive use of words or names—or both—from other languages.

I certainly wouldn't want to release one for sale without having a Spanish-bilingual reader review the translation for me first. And frankly, if I want one of my books translated, I would MUCH rather a human translator do it.

[fr > en] What does « voué à l’échec » mean?

[fr > en] What does « voué à l’échec » mean? - Lemmy.ca

Here is the context it was used in: >D’après elle, « l’essai de décriminalisation » du gouvernement était voué à l’échec dès le départ. Thank you in advance. On a somewhat related note, does anyone know of websites or channels that are less depressing than CBC where I can read, listen to, or watch French content? I recently started using Loops, and the algorithm started suggesting some French accounts. If anyone has any recommendations, I’d really appreciate it.
