Invitation for update of translations

Hello,

in the light of Vihunas current work on completion and enhancements in the spanish language file I would also like to call on everyone else to translate untranslated strings in the language files for their own native language.

Untranslated strings start with  like can be seen in this example from the croatian language file. It is not necessary to provide complete translations, even partial translations are helpful.

Following list is the state of the incomplete translated language files. The numbers counts the untranslated strings, which are detectable with . All files are checked in the state of MLF2 in version 20220803.1.

- Chinese (simplified): 8 untranslated strings
- Chinese (traditional): 8 untranslated strings
- Croatian: 130 untranslated strings
- Danish: 89 untranslated strings
- French: 48 untranslated strings
- Italian: 155 untranslated strings
- Norwegian: 56 untranslated strings
- Russian: 9 untranslated strings
- Swedish: 12 untranslated strings
- Tamil: 169 untranslated strings
- Turkish: 165 untranslated strings

How it works

- If one has a Github-account: clone the repository, create a branch in your copy for working on the translation and provide a pull request if your work is ready.
- if one has no Github-account: copy the language file, apply your enhancements and provide only your changed strings with key and value (i.e. like key = 'translated value') and the target language here in this thread.

Thank you in advance.

Tschö, Auge

Hello

if you want, please send the text to my email.

The current state is downloadable from Github. You can download the files separately by opening one in the browser, clicking the button "Raw" and comy and paste the code into a new file in a text editor. When you save the file, you must pay attention to the text encoding. The file must be saved in UTF-8 encoding.

For finding the relevant code lines I recommend to search for the string ). Please provide the eight strings in this thread in a separate reply.

A translation to Esperanto would be a completely new sub project. In this case it would be proper to take the file english.lang, to rename it to esperanto.lang and to translate all strings one after each other. When the translation is done, contact us here in the forum to clarify the way for submission of the result.

Thank you so far.

Tschö, Auge

Hi guys..MASTERS,,>> thank you to share us your beautiful minds.
I can see your future vision with lovely project like this. its smart simple and powerful
thank you for that (open_source= "open minds") God BLESS you & guide your steps<<

Its a pleasure to add little thing for that work ,I make translation for ARABIC but i keep it with ENGLISH it works together very fine.
there was many variables bracket in some lines i separate it from Arabic script with × so that the Arabic encoding does not disable the variable codes- Which must be in English encoding or Latino.. it works fine.

Am still working to make it more shorter and organized and hopefully in God willing to finish it with the single Arabic and purify it very soon.

I would like to mention one opinion to you,,
one thing:-It will be great if you make the text alignment in center so you contain all languages witch is come from [left to right] and some from [right to left] -Or you may put alignment options.

Here is the (lang) file link: Arabic-English for MyLittleForum عربي-إنجليزي لــ
I upload it as a TEXT file

I call it (Arabishعربيز)(

My love and respect :ok:

Hello

It looks a little bit strange to see the arabic and english menu text sivde by side without any space but well, it's a beginning. Well done. 👍

one thing:-It will be great if you make the text alignment in center so you contain all languages witch is come from [left to right] and some from [right to left] -Or you may put alignment options.

There is a general problem with the current implementation, that affects also your concept. Currently the forum does not explicitely set the text alignment with the exception of elements with a different alignment than the standard. Those definitions are based on latin languages which are written from left to right (as we know).

Since a few years there is a enhancement to text-align, that is "flow related" and so writing direction independent. The (meanwhile not so) new values for text-align are start and end. The use of the value start will automatically result in text-align: left; for languages, written left to right (ltr) and in text-align: right; for languages written from right to left (rtl). The reverse is true for the value end.

This works also with a mix of different languages with different writing directions in one document, if the writing direction is properly defined. That starts with providing the correct value for the key dir (ltr or rtl) in the language files (you forgot until now to set the writign direction rtl in your arabic translation). And it would be an additional task for an author of a posting to set the value for a posting section (i.e. a paragraph) in a language with a different writing direction that it is the default in the specific forum.

The browser support is nearly at 100%.

We aleady did most of the necessary work in the past (see this thread), where we also discussed the start and end values for text-align (at the end of the thread). The latest posting provides the code for a RTL-button (and same way a LTR-button) beside the posting form.

Thank you for providing the translation for the interested audience. I am more interested in an arabic only translation. In my humble opinion, this would be more interesting for a larger audience.

Oh, that looks horrible because of our left-to-right centristic and mainly nearly 20 years old design. I identified at least five main issues with one page visit on the main page in the context of left to right versus right to left written languages. I have to describe them detailed in issues on Github.

here is the Arabic TEXT file: Arabic_عربي

I downloaded it. Thank you for providing the translation. I'll put it into the repository, credited to you.

Reminder: I'll separate this and the following postings into a new thread in a few days.
