Dear Team, the last two months have brought me unexpected difficulties. In addition, today I retired from my professor position at Highline College. I had a wonderful 23 years at Highline. Still further, I am without a computer that has Excel for about two weeks. The good news is that my son, Isaac, is building me a super computer that has Excel and has better video capabilities than any of my previous computers : ) So I will boomerang back with Excel videos very soon : ) : ) Go Team!!!!!! Sincerely, Mike Girvin

Dear Team, You are not going to believe this!!! I can hardly believe it : ) YouTube just debuted a new "audio track" feature that creates a translated speaking audio option so you can listen to the words in a different language. It only works on videos that are newly released. I can't go back and add the translated audio to videos that have already been published. And, since it is in Beta, the audio translations only can be done in these languages: French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish. For the last three videos I published I have enabled all these languages, and will continue to do it to all future videos. As new languages are offered, I can add them too! Here are the three videos that have this new beta 9 languages:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umiQH...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KMPd...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmwQe...
You can click the settings gear icon below each video to get to audio tracks. Please try these and test to see if these languages are working = if you can here me speaking in French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish lol
Comment back and let me know.
Go Team!!!! Sincerely, Mike Girvin

Dear Team, I just tried to translate my excelisfun YouTube home page description into these languages: Hindi, Arabic, Dutch, Filipino, Indonesian, Khmer, Bangla, Malay, Malayalam, Nepali, Persian, Polish, Spanish, Swahili, Tamil, Thai, Urdu, Vietnamese. This option was not as easy to use and did not offer as many languages as the video translator tool. Very odd. But I need your help, go to my home page: youtube.com/user/excelisfun and see if you can read the channel description in your language. If you can read it in your language, or not, can you please leave a comment below? Go Team!!! Sincerely, Michael Girvin
