ADoM translation

[wasternne]

Sorry, I wasn't sure were to post this question, but it seems that all new possibilities and features will be available only in iAdom, so be it here.
I wish to ask, if there will be ever any possibility to translate Adom on other languages? There were some, at least one - I saw "ZAdom", which used russian language, but it's extremely hard to translate the game this way: by editing binary code. Will there ever be more comfortable way?
It's really interesting to hear Dr.TB's opinion about it...

I don't see even one good enough reason to translate ADOM to another language.

There are quite a lot people who don't speak (or read) English. Is that bad reasn?

We hashed this already. We made a nice
flamewar out of it actually. It started on the
55th post of this thread, and went from there : )

TB has already said that a translated version of ADOM would be exceedingly difficult because of how the message outputs are very much tied up with english language constructs. There are far too many fiddly rules to keep track of, especially with the thought of potential updates and changes.

Qualitatively translate the game is unreal. English is very easy to write sentences with floating words. For example in Russian, to replace the word "goblin" to "mouse", you need to change all corresponding adjectives, verbs and pronouns.
