Adding translations

[guyluz11]

Hi

Do you want to help open source project?, or perhaps you're looking for easy pull request!.

If you know how to write this is your chance, lets get down to it.

First locate your language in this page. Now remember the Language (two letter) - Region (two capital letters) of your region.

In this folder you will see files with the names of the Language-Region, if yours does not exist please create a new file for it.

Even if the language already exists but your region is not it is ok to open pull request, for example: en-GB it will be accepted because it is not en-US which already exists.

So how do you do it:

Language file does not exist

1. In this folder copy the en-US.json (as it is our base to translate) and change the name of the copy to your Language-Region.

2. Change the right side of the text to your language, you should keep the {} in the same place inside the word as it is a place holder.

3. Open the pull request to the dev branch.

Language file exists

1. Copy all missing translations from en-US.json into your existing Language file that we located earlier.

2. Change the right side of the text to your language, you should keep the {} in the same place inside the word as it is a placeholder.

3. Open the pull request to the dev branch.

If you have any questions you can ask me on the Discord server

• Specifically for this issue there is no need to ask to be assigned, just open pr.

[goobric]

how do I open a pull request (PR) to the dev branch, for a language that does not exit in the folder? I have created the .json file, the translation states that I do not have access to add a new language; and created a forked copy to my github account. How do I create a PR with this forked copy? thank you

Hello @goobric ,

As you said you have forked the repo, so now you need to make your desired changes and then you need to push the changes on your branch. Then create a pull request to the dev branch of the original repo from your branch and you are done 🎉

P.S.: To select the dev branch, you need to click on the dropdown option against the original repo name.

Thank you.

As someone with a background in the translation & localization industry, translation is not "super easy". It is often surprisingly tricky! 😉 In any case, I just started working on a Finnish translation. 🎃

By the way, I have trouble finding this in the app/code to explain the usage: "Exist": "Exist", Could someone help?

It's easy from a git stand point XD. Some usages of translations like Exist got deleted from the app, we are keeping the translations file with the same translations so that it will be easy to know how many translations are missing from each language (without deleting the world from all of the translations).

So just use the most common translation for the word and in the future if it is wrong someone will fix it.

And thank you everybody for your translations, it is one of the things that will help people around the world feel at home in our app.

[goobric]

Thank you for your reply How do I create a pull request to the repository once the en-US.json file has been altered for an additional language? Sorry for asking such a silly dumb question! I have the new language .json file, I don't know how to share it. Instruction 3 just states: "Open a pull request to the Dev branch"; without explaining how to do this! Sorry again, from a non-tech person.

hey! I just added the en-HT translation. I opened PR #589, Thanks for the opportunity.

[Bikramjit21]

idk why pr got blocked, its saying not allowing authorised users

[Utsav1999]

Hello @Bikramjit21 , You need to make the PR to the dev branch and as you are a first time contributor so you need approval from the repo owner to merge your changes. Thank you.

[guyluz11]

idk why pr got blocked, its saying not allowing authorised users

As @Utsav1999 said please change pr to dev branch, the merge itself and running the ci is done by one of the repo maintainer.
