Any resources in French?

Dec 02, 2013 10 Replies

Hi,



I'm planning to give a Pi to my nephew for Xmas (he's 12), but he's French and although his English is OK (for a 12yo) it's probably not up to reading technical documentation. I've googled for some resources, but not seen anything useful.



Anyone know of good RPi tutorials in French?



TIA


It's much easier to learn the necessary technical terms in the original documentation than have everything translated somehow. English is still *the* language for computer people. Most discussions are also in English on the net.

Easier for whom? Certainly not a 12yo.

I wonder if that's even true, anymore? Considering the chinese social media platforms are amongst the largest in the world, it won't be long before that Chinese is the most common language, if it isn't already.

Except for the French. Byte / octet for example. *Way* back when we had a s/h IBM mainframe that had come from a French newspaper. There was an appalling pong of French cigarettes when we first fired it up :;) But all the front panel was in French. Gave the engineers no end of grief. Even though all the lights and switches were in the same places.

I find things like EBU-UER or NATO-OTAN humorous. When you can't even agree on the name of the organisation what chance does international cooperation have? ;)

Google "raspberry pi site:.fr" and see if it helps. :)

Or this "raspberry pi site:.fr tutoriel"

Regardless of what the politicians of various stripes may think about a unified Europe its precisely what the Eurocrats, EASA for instance, want.

Thanks.

The first one is a bit specific - it's for connecting to a specific brand of ADSL router.

The second one is better and has lots of links in the comments. This one is particularly useful, I think
