About Hindi Language

Namaste!
Hindi is an official language of the Union of India.
Hindi is the fourth-most natively spoken language in the world, after Mandarin, Spanish and English.

History

At 16th April 2016, We had a webinar on T3BD (TYPO3 Contribution Bootup Day) which was arranged by Mathias Schreiber — The TYPO3 Product Owner & CEO of TYPO3 Inc. We had discussed many thing like TYPO3 Community, Internalization, Motivation to iTUG etc. Suddenly he just said ‘Hey! You guys should do the TYPO3 Translation for your native language — Hindi’, We just accepted such great opportunity by saying ‘Yes, we’ll do it’.

Special thanks to Mathias for the idea of TYPO3 Hindi & to always motivating us!

And… the journey had started at iTUG — Week 18, We have started TYPO3 Hindi translation on May 7th 2016 — http://www.nitsan.in/blog/post/itug-india-typo3-user-group-week-18/
