# Grants to translate the Interim Constitution

{% endhint %}

## Context

The Interim Constitution has been in place from hard fork and will remain until the final constitution is ratified. Intentionally minimal and reflects the tenets of CIP-1694.

The Cardano Constitution will impact all members of the Cardano community. Grants will be provided for translations of the original text into other languages so more members of the community are able to read it. Because it may not be possible for translations to capture the exact legal meaning of the original text, the English version will remain the authoritative source. The Interim Constitution and translations will be displayed within the Constitutional Committee portal. Intersect is offering one grant for each of the key languages identified to people with a good understanding of Cardano, its governance described in CIP-1694.

## Functional Requirements

* Translate the entire Interim Constitution (including appendices) into another language. Protocol parameter names should be left in English.
* The translated version begins with this translated warning message: This version of the Cardano Constitution has been translated from the original. Only the version that matches the on-chain hash is the official Cardano Constitution.
* The translator should understand the legal context and 1694 governance.

Suggested languages to be supported, aligned to GovTool translations:

* Portuguese
* Spanish
* Chinese
* French
* Japanese
* Swahili
* Italian

## Budget

Containing about 35 pages of technical text, the grants for translations will be 4,000 ADA for each language, for a total of 28,000 ADA

## To Apply

Intersect will supply a document with the Interim Constitution for direct translation. This will be offered to Community Hubs to take the lead with their local language, including self-assessment that the translation has been done correctly.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-knowledge-base/archive/cardano-budget-archive/intersect-operational-services/2024-intersect-cdh-and-grant-contracts/2024-cdh-grants/closed-grants/inclusion-and-accessibility-phase-2/grants-to-translate-the-interim-constitution.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
