There is no long tradition behind German and Nepali translations. It was a neglected field until recently. However, it has been started lately and gradually becoming available for the German learners esp. for Nepali people.
There are few books in Nepali medium which are quite good for beginners to learn the basic German language. I am not familiar with any published German-Nepali dictionaries. But there is a very good dictionary available in PDF file which everyone can download from this site: http://www.nepalresearch.com/dictionaries/nep_ger/nep_ger.htm, which is compiled by Karl-Heinz Krämer, South Asia Institute, University of Heidelberg.
Thanks a lot to Karl-Heinz; I hope he will dedicate some more time in future and publish an elegant dictionary for all the readers and learners of Nepali and German languages.
I did not find any Nepali literature translated into German. Recently, I had a correspondence with Narayan Wagle, writer of 'Palpasa Cafe', a national prize winning Nepali novel. He had agreed to have translation of Novel in the German language. I hope this project will be done soon in future.
Want to learn German?
There is a good book in Nepali medium written by Mr. Ramesh Adhikari(ISBN 99946-970-8-0). This is a Deutsch-Nepali-Deutsch book, and is useful for both Nepali and German learners. He has tried to include both Grammar exercises and conversational examples. However, he is not been able to include all cutural matters which have a great value while learning a language! I hope you can buy this book in Kathmandu!
Infact, there are many books in English medium. But there is one by Mr. Paul Coggle and Heiner Schenke, called 'Teach yourself German', this is a quite useful book. I found it very useful to know the basic German language. The writers are able to inform about the general culture of German people, and they have also compared the German language with some aspects of Englsih. So this quite useful for adult learners to learn German.
Danke!

Thanks for sharing detail information about German English Website Translation . I found one good website which offers German English Website Translation services at affordable price.
I like this blog. This is some similar information that I found helpful.Really its benefits of having a good bookkeeping practice...
Great post.I really think that Nepali was as hard as other languages.I might say that learning other languages such as Nepali translation would be harder especially when it was not your native languages.We would always give emphasis on the importance of a technical translation being accurate and efficient can indeed not be overstated. Especially in the ever faster moving world of globalized business, successful information and technology transfer within multinational businesses can make the difference between win or lose.
