What is an "outside speaker"?
-
Speaker for the public talk on the weekend meeting, visiting from another congregation. In other words, not a local brother.
-
Is this really "official" theocratic wording? and where in theocbase do we need to differentiate between "speaker" and "outside speaker"?
-
Strange wording in English, I think. We normally use "Speaker" for the local talk and "Outgoing Speaker" for brothers going to other halls. If pressed for two words, I would use "Incoming Speaker" for the local talk.
Outside Speaker sounds like the brother will only give talks if the Kingdom Hall has no ceiling :) -
So, do we have a solution for this one? Where is it used in TheocBase? Can we agree on Incoming?
-
It's used in help text showing a warning when brothers might not be available. Besides this warning, the others are "Person unavailable" and "Brother has other meeting parts"
I think we will change it to "Outgoing Speaker" -
So this is not a speaker from another congregation, but a speaker from your own congregation that is giving a talk in another congregation?
-
It looks like this discussion stalled. Maybe someone on the team can look up the context of the string and report back. Thx!
-
This text did get changed to "Outgoing Speaker" in English. Looking at the code, I believe this warning is to say this brother just selected already has a responsibility. "Outgoing Speaker" is, as Nicki said, when a brother from your own congregation is going out to give a talk in another congregation.
-
Outgoing speaker, we use that one for someone who is authorised to go out. I could easily be on holiday and not stop being an outgoing speaker. This expression wouldn't wave a red flag, which I understand it should.
I may translate as "has out-talk", no good in English, but over here a common answer to "where is so and so?" Non-availability is unmistakably implied.
