Thank you for your kind words.

I'm not aware of anyone else posting on this site ... perhaps you were
referring to
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/edu-sig/2017-April/011662.html

If so, the new repository is https://github.com/aroberge/experimental

The example module to translate (some) of the keywords into French is
https://github.com/aroberge/experimental/blob/master/experimental/transformers/french_syntax.py

Let me know if you need help to adapt it.

Cheers,

André

P.S. I'm in the middle of writing a "Teacher's guide" to Reeborg's world
which will possibly give other examples of useful strategies tools, in
addition to using repeat.
If you wish to contribute a version of the robot instructions into your own
language (Spanish?) for Reeborg's World, I would gladly add it! ;-)
