[Bug 712974] Re: Impossible to properly translate ubiquity due to usage of $medium variable
I changed the status to 'opinion' now. Andrej, if this the workaround with brackets () is not suitable for you (or others), we'll change the status to 'confirmed' instead. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/712974 Title: Impossible to properly translate ubiquity due to usage of $medium variable -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 712974] Re: Impossible to properly translate ubiquity due to usage of $medium variable
We, the German translators, have done the same as Milo did. It's just a
workaround. We have translated the string as if it was written in this
way:
You can try ${RELEASE} directly from this storage medium (${MEDIUM}),
without making any changes to your computer.
Sie können ${RELEASE} direkt von diesem Speichermedium (${MEDIUM})
ausprobieren, ohne dass etwas an Ihrem Rechner verändert wird.
I'd like to see this string split into two strings (one for USB and one
for CD-ROM), too. At the moment, we can live with this workaround of
using a 'general' word like 'storage medium' and then using brackets ()
to clarify which medium it is.

[Bug 712974] Re: Impossible to properly translate ubiquity due to usage of $medium variable
Just a note: for the Italian translation, we put the $MEDIUM part
between brackets since we have the same problem. We translated the
string as if it was written in this way:
You can try ${RELEASE} without making any changes to your computer,
directly from this [device|drive] (${MEDIUM}).
Don't know if it is possible with your language.
I understand your problem, and I would like to see a better solution for
that string too.
