Translation.

Merit badge: the word book in many languages

Earn the “translation” merit badge when one of your works is translated into another language.

Or earn it by being a translator who can look at the badge and tell I blindly followed Google Translate and I’m sorry I’m not as smart as you but sometimes it’s all I can do to handle the one language so just take the badge and stop giving me that look already. Okay? Okay. Glad we got that settled.

Part of the merit badges for writers series. The badge may be posted on your site or blog. Tell us why you’ve earned (or will never earn) it in the comments.

    I can’t believe you draw, not type, all the words in the badges. That is amazing. I can’t even sign my name in a straight line. :-)

    @Catherine: A badge like this makes my hand hurt. (Though that’s partially the point– I discourage myself from using too much text on badges that way.)
