Could someone confirm whether Kiwix supports PLURAL? If so, could you make some notes concerning plural on the project page:
- Do all messages support plural or do individual messages need to have plural enabled on them?
- Which plural format is used?
- What is the syntax for writing plural?
- Provide a link to the project plural rules, in both narrative and code form, if a custom plural.
Hi, what do you mean exactly with PLURAL? As far as I know there is nothing special concerning plural form of the strings.
Do you mean that so far, none of the messages on Kiwix need Plural (that is, none are number dependant)?
Done - documented, with thanks.What do you mean with fallback function? Per default Kiwix is in English, so if no localisation is matching the local language, Kiwix will be in English. But, if translation files are corrupted (what should never happen) and Kiwix does not start for this reason, there is no fallback. Kelson (talk) 16:42, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
Fallback means that if there is no translation for "de-formal" it will fall back to the translation to "de" and in case there is no "de" it will fall back to "en". Without fall back, missing translations for "de-formal" will immediately be shown in "en".
Looks like sentence should be started fro There.
Why is this kind of error message needed? The GUI should not make it possible.
Indexing as noun or verb?
The integrity of what is to be checked? Ui.main.checkIntegrity ("Integrity check")
This message is not really clear to me. Is it about previous versions (which become unavailable, when purged) or about a list of something of the past, such as a log or an undo-buffer (being trimmed to some date-time) or about the history of purges of some sort? Message Ui.main.purgeHistory ("Purge history")
What exactly does "reset" mean in this context? Wipe out, restore to some previous state, reload file, or something else? Ui.main.reload ("Reload Bookmark Set")
This is reload, English translation was wrong.
Please fix the input file. We'll take care of the rest.
done
Thanks. I see that you also changed the string in here. Please don't do that, as it disrupts the update and fuzzy process. In this case, your change caused the change in the source file to no longer need importing, which cause the change to not be noticed and I was not given the opportunity to fuzzy on import.
It may seem as a *silly* question to many, but can these messages be used with wikicode, as in, can I use '' for italics (etc.) or one can use html? Thanks.
No, they cannot. This is a client programme, not a (Media)wiki engine.
OK :) Thanks for your reply!
Will the software do the restarting for the user?
Isn't "quit and abort" a bit redundant?
Tabulator stops, or tabs you click on, or even another kind of tabs? Ui.main.tabs ("Tabs")
Ui.main.display ("Display") Verb or noun?
Needs context. It's usually better (at least in Finnish) to use the verb as confirmation in questions directed to the user. For example "Do you want to delete this file?" [Delete] [Cancel] is better than [OK] [Cancel].
Context? Why in lower case?
Best split sentence up like this:
An indexing process is currently running. Are you sure you want to quit and abort it now?
Please split sentence.
An indexing process is currently running. Are you sure you want to quit and abort it now?
What is the reason behind that?
What should I do in the code part1 + " " + part2 with part1="An indexing process is currently running." and part2="Are you sure you want to quit and abort it now?" Are you sure this is perfectly portable over all languages?
Why on this string and not the other which also have many sentences?
