Armenian Book of Mormon Translation Complete
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH -- The Book of Mormon is now available in
Eastern Armenian. Eastern Armenian is the language actually spoken
by people in Armenia, while Western Armenian is spoken mostly in the
diaspora.
There is also an interesting perspective on the scripture translation
process in this Church News article.

The article below also describes how the decision is made to
translate materials into new languages. It states, "often this
occurs after missionaries have come to encounter more and more people
whose primary language is different from that in which the
missionaries are teaching them."
