            Bug ID: 415897
           Summary: Very confusing translation of "presentation" and
                    "cancel" in KDE Connect
           Product: i18n
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Android
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: pl
          Assignee: kdei18n-pl-uw...@lists.sourceforge.net
          Reporter: t_jane...@o2.pl
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Polish translation of KDE Connect is broken. On the main screen there's an
option called "Slideshow remote", which is also on the list of plugins (under
the same name).

It is translated as "Sterowanie pokazem przeźroczy", which is absurd, because
no one uses the term "przeźrocza" (transparent slides?) anymore, it's a word
out of the 80's. I had to search for the translation file to figure out what
this function actually does.

It seems as if someone tried to find a different, very old-timey, translation
of a slideshow. In Polish software a "slideshow" is always translated as "pokaz
slajdów" (it's the same in Gwenview) and "presentation" as "prezentacja". This
is the first time I've encountered "pokaz przeźroczy" and had no idea what that
was supposed to be.

The correct translation is "Sterowanie prezentacją".

Also "cancel" is translated as "zaniechaj" instead of "anuluj". It looks as if
the translation was done by a very old person, who hasn't used computers and
doesn't know that those phrases have standard Polish translations.

This error is in (it took me a long time to find where to look for it):
/trunk/l10n-kf5/pl/messages/extragear-network/kdeconnect-android.po


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch KDE Connect on Android (current version 1.13.5)
2. Click on a paired device.
3. You see an incorrect translation as a second option ("Sterowanie pokazem
przeźroczy").


OBSERVED RESULT
Wrong translation:"Sterowanie pokazem przeźroczy", "Zaniechaj"

EXPECTED RESULT
Correct translation: "Sterowanie prezentacją", "Anuluj"

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
