Noun/Verb context on Localize.drupal.org
by José San Martin 19 Jan '10

19 Jan '10

Hi, I've just looked at contextualized translation in localize.drupal.org. It's just great, but there is an issue about it... The only context available is "Long month names". Shouldn't there be contexts to differentiate word-class (noun/verb) ambiguous words, such as Filter, View, Update? If there's work to be done on this issue, how could I help?

Noun/Verb context on Localize.drupal.org

But who spoke on real time? As long as there are isolated string like "view", which are not classified in any way to take in account differences in other languages, there is nothing that can be done (until we have intelligent machines, of course). However, the humans that program the machines are intelligent, and, I believe, can distinguish between verbs and nouns. ;) To me it seems a very simple thing. When somewhere in a module someone adds a "view" string (this is an example), it should classify it as a "verb" or a "noun". Then is up to the translating team of each language to decide if the translated string would be the same for verbs and nouns or would be different.

Noun/Verb context on Localize.drupal.org

Hi, I wouldn't say that classifying in "noun" and "verb" would solve everything in latin, but the example you just gave is one of them where I believe it would solve it: view (noun) - "vista" view (verb) - "exibir" or "ver" Maybe one noun in English could have different equivalent nouns in Portuguese accordingly with the context. But a simple division between "noun" and "verbs" would be already a great advance. For Drupal 7 is already too late from what I understood, but maybe, for Drupal 8, we (translating teams), could least situations where we would need that "context"...

Noun/Verb context on Localize.drupal.org

Hi, Actually this is a topic that we in Portugal could also help. ;) The division between noun and verb would be essential as it is a frequent problem on the translation to Portuguese from Portugal. I actually believe all latin languages will have interest in improving this "contextualized translation".

Drupal 7 on l.d.o
by Erik Stielstra 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

The Drupal 7 string freeze was announced to take place on December 1st. But I still significant text patches float into core [1]. But the good news is that this seems to be related to the help section. How do other translators feel about starting translating D7? To support the D7 translation it would be very usefull to have D7 core (dev release) already available on localize.drupal.org. It would be super if this could be done on short term we have a translation session during the Belgium Drupal meeting on saturday Dec. 12. I don't want to push you Gabor, but if you have a minute ... ;) Regards, Erik Stielstra [1] http://drupal.org/project/issues/search/drupal?text=&assigned=&status[]=Ope…

Hi, Today, I'm trying to login in l.d.o. and while clicking on the http://localize.drupal.org/user/login link, it redirects me to http://drupal.org/user/login which is not valid. Is there a problem with l.d.o.? Thanks. -- # Vasileios Lourdas, # Informatics Engineer, Thessaloniki (Greece) # http://www.lourdas.name
