Package: lincity
Version: 1.13.1
Severity: minor
Tags: l10n patch
Hi,
while translating »lincity« to german, I've found some typos. To fix
them, I've attached a patch.
Here some other possible improvements:
a)
> #: cliglobs.c:56
> msgid "Jan"
You can find the months in glibc with strftime %b.
b)
Some strings are divided into two parts. That's difficult for translators.
c)
You've used different abbreviations for some words, e.g. »firestation«
--> »fire stn« »fire sta'n«. IMO it's better use it consistent. If the
reason for this abbreviation is the length of the field, theres a note
for the translators missing, which max length is possible for the
translated strings.
d)
There are some strings that contain only other already translated
strings , e.g.
#: main.c:772
#, c-format
msgid " Residences %4d Markets %4d Farms %4d\n"
Is it possible to combine them?
e)
Please add a comment for translators here:
> #: screen.c:1854
> #, c-format
> msgid "%s%5.1f MINS/year V %s"
It's not clear, what MIN means here. See also:
#. TRANSLATORS:
#. MIN=Mining, PRT=Import/export from port,
#. MNY=Money, POP=Population, TEC=Technology,
#. FIR=Fire coverage
#.
#: screen.c:2464
msgid "MIN"
f)
#: modules/monument.c:73
#, c-format
msgid "% Complete"
ist interpreted by gettext(). In the german translation (% vollständig),
msgfmt -cv produces an error (% v is not a valid format string)
Can you mask the character »%« (%%)?
Regards,
Chris
