[Bug 641480] Re: English printf string hard to translate
This is no bug here. These are just english strings that have no influence on the translation. If you are confusing %s with a pluralization rule, you are mistaken. %s is a placeholder for a string to be substituted in. The note is to tell you to format the string as you would in your language where a plural noun will be subject. ** Changed in: unity Status: New = Invalid ** Changed in: unity-place-applications Status: New = Invalid ** Changed in: unity-place-applications (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641480 Title: English printf string hard to translate -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 641480] Re: English printf string hard to translate
You don't understand the problem here. It has nothing to do with plural forms. Consider the following French translations: - There are no games installed on this computer. - Il n'y a aucun jeu installé sur cet ordinateur. - There are no graphical applications installed on this computer. - Il n'y a aucune application graphique installée sur cet ordinateur. Now, in French %s would be replaced, respectively, with jeu and application graphique, but notice other parts of the sentence also change in accordance to the gender of the nouns. Not all languages are as simple as English WRT syntax, and many languages are even more complex than French in that regard. So please add one full translatable sentence for each category, instead of blindly filling %s placeholders. This is what I referred to as the basic programming rules from GNU. (And I'm disappointed Unity devs needed 5 months to even consider this simple but serious bug, just to close it.) ** Changed in: unity Status: Invalid = Confirmed ** Changed in: unity-place-applications Status: Invalid = Confirmed ** Changed in: unity-place-applications (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641480 Title: English printf string hard to translate -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
