I want to help with polish version of "A Tour of Go", how to start?

[Kamil Ziemian]

Hello.

I recently found that "A Tour of Go" is in polish with is my native language. Polish is parochial language of polish nation, which is very verbose, have incomprehensible rules, full of rare letters and for English speaker probably impossible to pronounce in correct way. Basically if English is Go, Polish is C++ (minus wide user base :D). So, this is not surprise to me, that they are many language errors in translation of "A Tour of Go".

Just on first page. There is "mozesz", when it should be "możesz", with polish letter "ż". We have also "używając gofmt narzędzia", which is correct polish sentence, but sounds very awkward and unnatural. It should be "używając narzędzia gofmt". This same about "Gdy będziesz gotów by zacząć" it should be "Gdy będziesz gotów zacząć". https://go-tour-pl1.appspot.com/welcome/1

Since making another tour over "A Tour of Go" is quite good thing to do, I want to help with improving language in this, but I don't know where to start. I try to google answer, but found nothing. Can anyone guide me?

Dziękuję bardzo. Thank you.

I never used App Engine before, so I have one more question. Polish version of "A Tour of Go" and this file tell you how to make it localized from scratch, which is not very reasonable. It will make more sense if I join people that make current versions and help with some language issues. Can you join someone on App Engine? Only such thing that I use is GitHub and I still mess it up quite regularly.

This can be such an awkward thing, that you can speak with someone in your native language, but since we don't want to exclude people from reading this thread we stuck to English.

The link to the polish translation was added by a person names Michal Stokluska.
