272 English translations in Logos, but how about the rest of the languages?

While looking forward to the Pentecost time, one might be interested in languages.

With this search in logos.com I found 272 English Bible translations and some translations in few other languages.

I think FL could do a good service if all available digital resources in the known languages could be added to Logos/Verbum. They are probably quite well tagged and often have audio and video additions, and usually free of charge for the ordinary users.

I would guess most digital Bible providers would be more than happy to co-operate with FL. I expect that some sort of tagging conversion is needed, but once done it will work for many resources.

It also came into my mind that it would be nice to have a Vulgate audio in proper Latin pronunciation.

    Your idea obviously has merit ... though just scanning around, looks like the mix offered is market-based (presumably need).

    I remember many forum posts, almost 20 years ago, regarding a Japanese translation (Matthew, who is no longer with us).  

    And I wonder at the use of prepub, for even one Bible in a fairly well-spoken language.

    One of my uses for Accordance and the old Bibleworks, continues to be the availability of many of the languages.
