Translations Needed

[corbinlc]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many of our users are non English speakers, but like many apps we have only supported English. As of today we now have translations for Chinese and Persian added to our repo, but there are so many more languages that would help. For example, we have more installs in Brazil than any other country, but we don't have a Portuguese translation.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like anyone to get involved and start contributing translations for any language that they are fluent in. Doing so is fairly easy as most of the text is found in one file but we will help you as much as needed to make this happen.

Describe alternatives you've considered
We don't want to pay for this service because we want someone who is technical and part of our community to partner with us in bringing UserLAnd to your native tongue.

Hi,
I am a native English speaker, but work as a member/admin of the French translation team of Full Circle Magazine (https://fullcirclemagazine.org ; www.fullcirclemag.fr) devoted to Linux Ubuntu in all its forms and, more particularly to Ubuntu.
Have I understood correctly that what you need is a translation of the commands in your file? That would be possible I think. Just let me know if you think I can help. In a former life, I taught translation from French to English to graduate students at the Sorbonne. Translation theory is the same in the other direction...

[AuntieE]

OK! Will do my best. Provenance : Courrier<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> pour Windows 10

I'd make Japanese version if you need it.

[corbinlc]

@tsuchiura please do. Tell us if you need any assistance.

[carbonatedcaffeine]

Hey corbin is there any languages you want added?

[corbinlc]

I simply want people to know that helping out with translations would be very appreciated. This can be any language they are fluent with.

@corbinlc

Hi if you would like to translate the application into Arabic I can translate it and I can send you a strings.xml file in Arabic and you are merging it with the program

[corbinlc]

Thanks. That would be appreciated.

[foodmaher]

@corbinlc

Thanks. That would be appreciated.

File strings.xml translator for arabic ready how to upload it to you can you receive it by Mega or how

Note: It contains texts that are not translated into Arabic because they contain variable names that I can not type because the Arabic is written from the right side to the left (unlike the English language). Here is a problem in changing the names of the variables that will make it not work so I put it as it is until I change it On the computer and it will be uploaded to you again, and it may also contain a translation errors that will be corrected in the future.

Thanks .. 😁😁

[MatthewTighe]

@foodmaher Feel free to switch the order of the variables if that would make sense in a right-to-left language. The variable would still be written as it is now. In terms of uploading the file, you can either just drag the file into a comment here, or you can submit a pull request if you're familiar with how to use git.

[foodmaher]

@corbinlc
@MatthewTighe
This is an Arabic language file but needs future modifications after its merge with the application to see if the sentences are consistent and understandable for users : Arabic language.zip

Request: Who will merge it with the application and request tell me after it ends in its texture until I see its place and I want to know how to modify the future it especially when I am modifying a file on the projects add the amendment to my account and not added to the application because I do not have the right to modify it

[Anton2365]

I'm willing to do a German translation, if needed. :)

[corbinlc]

We would definitely appreciate that. Tell us if you need any help.

[Atavic]

I copied this to this gist with italian translation.

Some notes: I used script for transcript, as script is mostly used by italians.
I used richiami di esecuzione for intents, but it is a rarely used term, maybe the english term could be included, as:

richiami di esecuzione (intents)

...like I did for:

risveglio del terminale (wakelock)

I can help with Traditional Chinese (Taiwan, zh-rTW)

[AndrewScibek]

@sujunmin That is correct they were just google translated from simplified chinese

[sujunmin]

@AndrewScibek Yes, the translation I created PR is included for native regular usage.

[s8321414]

In fact, I am going to rework it :3......

[thezakman]

I can make the Portuguese (Brazilian) translation with no problem. ;)

[corbinlc]

That would be great! Thanks!

[carbonatedcaffeine]

that will be awesome... finally...

[thezakman]

I'm done with the translation. @corbinlc @EnderNightLord-ChromeBook

[BestPinguin]

I'm a French native and I have a medium level in English, I can also help if you're interested...

[Jzarecta]

I recommend to use transifex to manage the translations
Sign me in for Spanish

[carbonatedcaffeine]

Yo... a Spanish translation has already been added.

[rodrigoesborges]

I can help with portuguese, spanish and, maybe, french translation teams

[corbinlc]

Please feel free to submit a pull request with modifications to the existing translations.

[CatAnonymous]

Vietnamese

[luongthomas]

Hi @khaiphan9x, can you help with Vietnamese?

[seisdr]

Why the Arabic language is not full implement

[Ti64CLi]

I can help with the French translation if needed

[corbinlc]

@seisdr I think it is because the app changed after the last time someone worked on that translation. Feel free to contribute the missing parts of the translation.

[corbinlc]

@Ti64CLi feel free to take a crack at it. There is an incomplete translation currently, because the app changed after the last Frech translation work.

[Matthellda]

Add Filipino Language please?

[krisfremen]

Hey there,

I'd be willing to contribute Macedonian translations!

Will start translating soon.

[onceagainifindmyselfhere]

I could be wrong but issue reporting on github in general could do with some translation. People aren't able to set proper reports because they cant read the instructions

@saed-rr What's the matter? why did you mention my issue?

[Mohsenkalbarii]

Hello. My language is Persian. I am not that familiar with the software. I am very confused. Please forgive me.
