[HELP WANTED] Client Internationalization

[Joe Schmitt]

We are currently in the process of adding internationalization support to the client (i.e. all text your end user sees will be in their language). We are looking for people to help with the translations of a small set of phrases the client uses into other languages.

We currently have translations / translators for:

• Basque
• Dutch
• French
• German
• Hungary
• Norwegian
• Spanish (Spain)

If you’re interested in adding an additional language to the client, when you translate, please put the language above the phrases, and leave the phrases in the original ordering and format (basically just copy and paste the phrase list, replacing text), this will help me greatly.

Below is a list of phrases that should be translated:

### SHUTDOWN PROMPT ###
{company} needs to perform maintenance on this computer.
Please save any work and close all programs.
Cancel
Hide

Shutdown Now 
Postpone for

[Quazz]

I can do Dutch if you like.

[Matthieu Jacquart]

Hi Joe, I can try to make french translation

[Wayne Workman]

I can do the English translations, Joe.

[x23piracy]

@Wayne-Workman said in [HELP WANTED] Client Internationalization:

I can do the English translations, Joe.

I think the base will be already in english, Joe’s mother tongue?

[x23piracy]

@Joe-Schmitt maybe it’s a good idea to update the initial post, with the translators (languages) you have and the languages you need.

[Joe Schmitt]

Unfortunately I have a very busy schedule for the next couple weeks and limited time to work on internationalization. When I get some free time I’ll post a list of phrases in this thread so people can start translating though it could be a few days.

[Joe Schmitt]

@x23piracy / @Sebastian-Roth (both possible german translators) @Matthieu-Jacquart @Quazz I have updated the original post with a list of phrases. When you translate, please put the language above the phrases, and leave the phrases in the original ordering and format (basically just copy and paste the phrase list, replacing text), this will help me greatly.

@x23piracy Thanks! Most of your translations are great but some are slightly different to what is meant in English as I understand it. Please let us know what you think of this:

@Joe-Schmitt @Sebastian-Roth and me revised the german translation Sebastian’s Post has the final translations to use.

Regards X23

[Joe Schmitt]

@x23piracy @Sebastian-Roth @Matthieu-Jacquart I finished i18n support. Can you confirm these are correct?

fr-FR (French)

de-DE (German)

[Matthieu Jacquart]

Yes, it seems good to me !

[Polii123]

In my opinion the german translation for “Postpone for” should be “Verschieben um”.

[x23piracy]

@Polii123 said in [HELP WANTED] Client Internationalization:

In my opinion the german translation for “Postpone for” should be “Verschieben um”.

Sure if you translate 1:1 it would be “Verschieben um” but will it make sense as you see the time it should be postponed for:

Since that should be clear the word “um” isn’t needed for me.

Regards X23

[x23piracy]

@Joe-Schmitt ACK

[Polii123]

@x23piracy

That’s not what I wanted to change.
This is what I thought would be the better translation:

Now i got you

@Joe-Schmitt @Sebastian-Roth i think we should change what @Polii123 is telling us. He’s right.
