Translators wanted

Maybe your fellow countrymen can help?

I’m assuming you figured this out, but I found that it helps to run the Welcome app and check what it ā€œlooks likeā€ there.
Helps with getting the context right.

Yeah, I tried and ran the command given in the ā€œtutorialā€, but I just kept getting part of the text in terminal.

I still have some way to learn how to maximize my workflow

Not to mention Klingon
:laughing:

I run the Welcome app like this, to get a preview of what everything looks like in the current translation:

eos-welcome --lang=rs

and switching between English and the language I’m translating into to get a feel of how well the translation represents the original meaning.

I did that in terminal, but the Welcome app didn’t start, just gave me the option to open permanently or once in the terminal.
Anyway… saw it today, and saw some places where I can make better translation

Yeah, you can use command

eos-welcome --once --lang=is

to see the translation in action, even if you disabled welcome.

I also offer to translate the applications that Endeavor has into Spanish from Spain and thus have the distro completely in Spanish.

Tell me what I should do.

Greetings

Welcome and thanks for the offer!

The Spanish translation does need some work, but fortunately most is already done. You could add the missing translations by comparing the English and Spanish translation files. And if you find any translation issues with the existing translation strings, feel free to correct them.

See this link: https://discovery.endeavouros.com/endeavouros-tools/welcome, and look for chapter Note for the translators.

The Spanish translation file is already in your system too, file
/usr/share/endeavouros/scripts/translation-es.bash

After finishing your additions, you can do a pull request at github. Alternatively you can send me the translation file as a PM here.

Looking forward to to hearing from you! Please do not hesitate to ask if anything is not clear.

Hi, Manuel …

The Wellcome application is fully translated… I was also referring to the other apps… eos-apps-info, eos log tool… etc.

What file would I have to translate in those applications?

So far we haven’t added translation support for the other apps. Seems that most users are OK with that.

I’m not saying we will not do it, but currently we don’t have plans for implementing it.

Hello Manuel…ok, that’s correct, it’s something I don’t understand…but I respect it…since it is a distro for everyone…those who don’t know English…what do they do with those applications?..because the logical thing would be Anyone who doesn’t know English should simply uninstall it…or not install it when installing.

Well understood then.

Thank you
