[Feature] to add Chinese simplified translation based on v3.0

[wuodoo]

Feature Request

I want to add Chinese simplified translation based on v3.0

but not found the way to add ，cmake file without translation link

If the application provides base translation like i18n files even like empty files ，maybe many contributors want to add the localization .

[AndriyMulyar]

@manyoso what could we do to enable folks to hit the localization goals in the roadmap? Instructions?

I would like to help the traditional chinese one. We need the i18n file (ts or something likes) to translate the texts on the new UI.

Maybe you can use Weblate?

https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/i18n-source-translation.html https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/formats/qt.html

The TS file example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE TS>
<TS version="2.1" language="es_ES">
<context>
    <name>QObject</name>
    <message>
        <location filename="main.cpp" line="52"/>
        <source>about...</source>
        <translation>acerca de...</translation>
    </message>
    <message>
        <location filename="main.cpp" line="53"/>
        <source>Hello world!
Live long and prosper!</source>
        <translation>¡Hola mundo!
¡Larga vida y prosperidad!</translation>
    </message>
</context>
</TS>

Can you see this PR: https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all/pull/2612

Do you have a ts file that includes your translations please? I'll be pushing that change and the subsequent TS files into the main github repository shortly as soon as I have a document outlining how users can add translations.

This PR has now landed. You can see here how to contribute translations for chinese which will be our first target for a foreign language support: https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all/blob/main/gpt4all-chat/contributing_translations.md

Also, you can coordinate with other contributors who might be working on this translation as well through discord. The link to discord is https://discord.gg/4M2QFmTt2k

A chinese translation file has now landed in main and people are working to improve it. Closing.

Hello @wuodoo , I very much welcome your volunteering for maintaining this, but the current rule is that you have to email me from your own email account and not through github. Let me know your name and your email. If you don't wish these to be listed in the Maintainers file that can be okay. Let me know please! You can email me at 'adam@nomic.ai'
