Looking at the source file and lines in your request, I see strings like "%s's %s debugged." and nothing about 'ferries'. Maybe these lines have changed recently and you're working with old code... Anyway, this is a good place to discuss the lack of translator comments! Let's gather as many ambiguities as we can and then send a request/patch to the bug tracker. One I stumbled upon recently is this: #: client/gui-gtk-2.0/repodlgs.c:932 client/gui-mui/repodlgs.c:665 #: client/gui-win32/repodlgs.c:691 msgid "U" I guess from the context that it means "Upgrade" as in upgrade unit. ~Daniel _______________________________________________ Freeciv-i18n mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-i18n
