You have a wonderful ambition there. This reminds me of my attempts a long time ago to translate the copy of r5rs that is shipped with Guile to German. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2018-04/msg00007.html Nothing came of it and I don’t know if Guile’s documentation is stable enough. For example, at https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2022/online-guix-days-2022-announcement-2/ there have been discussions about reworking part of the docs. See there at * 13:40–14:15: A Deep Dive into the Guile Documentation & Makeover Proposal In hindsight, I would rather translate the SICP book http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/ (which already has been translated to German by Susanne Daniels-Herold, but I think to no other language). I’ve not checked if there are more recent comparable books. Of course, there are SRFIs and Guile specifics beyond SICP, like (ice-9 match). Regards, Florian
