[Gramps-devel] Sense of some sentences

[Jérôme <rom...@ya...>]

Hi,


Making translation for my locale, I listed some sentences, for which I 
do not understand the sense. Any help is welcome!

1. #: ../src/Merge/mergefamily.py:280
"When merging people where one person doesn't exist, that \"person\" 
must be the person that will be deleted from the database."

2. #: ../src/plugins/import/ImportXml.py:1497
msgid "Gramps ignored namemap value"

3. #. create hyperlink
#: ../src/plugins/webreport/WebCal.py:586
msgid "Main Navigation Menu Item: %s"

4. #: ../src/plugins/drawreport/AncestorTree.py:972
#: ../src/plugins/drawreport/DescendTree.py:1572
msgid ""
"Whether to resize the page to fit the size \n"
"of the tree.  Note:  the page will have a \n"
"non standard size.\n"
"\n"
"With the 'Do not scale tree' option\n"
"  the page is resized to the height/width \n"
"  of the tree\n"
"\n"
"With 'Scale tree to fit page width only'\n"
"  the height of the page is resized to the \n"
"  height of the tree\n"
"\n"
"With 'Scale tree to fit the size of the page'\n"
"  the page is resized to remove any gap in \n"
"  either the height or width."

If we do not scale tree, we use the paper options, maybe the 2nd para 
should not use 'height/width' ?


I suppose some minor changes make sense,
something like:

#: ../src/plugins/gramplet/PersonDetails.py:200
msgid "%s - %s."

#: ../src/plugins/gramplet/PersonDetails.py:202
msgid "%s."

-            retval = _('%s - %s.') % (date, place)
+            retval = _('%(date)s - %(place)s.') % (date, place)
         else:
-            retval = _('%s.') % date
+            retval = ('%s.') % date


Then about wording in context.
I guess 'call name' is a 'call given name' like and 'given name' field 
is for given name*s* ?

Finaly, 'unknown' does not have the same sense for individuals 
(ancestors/generations) and gender or spouse.
ie. we know it exists but we do not known yet versus we do not know the 
answer. OK, this last one, is very cosmetic and I suppose we use the 
same word in english.



Best regards,
Jérôme
