Having additional active reviewers increases the rate at which volunteer translators can be approved to operate in the TWB Workspace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Our top volunteer translator is Eric Ragu, who has donated 312,000 words, followed by ishaklamia (278,000 words), Ashutosh Mitra (249,000 words) and Denise Tarud (212,000 words). Taken together, our four top translators have donated a breathtaking total of over a million words.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Language pairs<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">During the last 12 months our translators accepted volunteer assignments in 111 language pairs. The top language pair was English to French, representing 23.0 percent\u00a0of the operation, followed by English into Spanish (13.6 percent), French into English (11.7 percent), English into Portuguese (7.1 percent) and Spanish into English (5.3 percent).\u00a0Overall, the top three pairs represented 48.3 percent\u00a0of the words posted for translation in the last 12 months, down from 51.2 percent in April.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/translatorswithoutborders.org\/twbnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/NL201411_proportion_pairs.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-252\" alt=\"Top language pairs\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/translatorswithoutborders.org\/twbnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/NL201411_proportion_pairs-240x169.jpg?resize=530%2C374\" width=\"530\" height=\"374\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">This information is important because TWB strives to deliver translations in many languages, especially those from Africa and India, but our operation tends to concentrate on a few Eurocentric languages.
