Looks okay to me (but wait for more qualified confirmation before inking. :winkgrin: )

I have assumed that there is only one scout because, in English at least, if there were more than one then it should be "voices", not "voice". ;)

It is recommended that you always wait for three to agree on a translation.
I speak Connemara Irish, and my input will often reflect that.
I will do an mp3 file on request for short translations.

But every scout has one voice... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
In certain languages you'd use the singular, and in others, the plural. Or both are possible in the same language (I saw samples of both in native Irish btw)

That is certainly the logic in Irish, but not normally in English. ;)
