[Gnomesword-developers] GnomeSword translation effort.

[Hugo v. d. K. <hvd...@va...>]

LS,

Here are some words/concepts I could not clarify using an English
dictionary nor using Google. So if someone could explain them I might be
able to find a translation for it.

 - Interlinear

 - Lemmas

 - Strongs (Numbers)

 - Morphological (Tags)

 - Hebrew Cantillation


Other issues I ran into:

 - Menu items with a fixed key definition are at times impossible to 
   translate because one has to have that letter present. (For example:
   The _E_dit (underlined E) in the menu is defined as string "_Edit" but 
   the Dutch translation should most likely be "Wijzigen" and this has no 
   capital E. It does have a small E so one could get away with it in a 
   sense if you use a capital E instead but it is ugly and does not even 
   work now.)

 - The provided po/gnomesword.pot is from april which was propably around 
   gnomesword 0.7.2 but I could find no differences with an output of
   `xgettext -j -s *.c *.cpp` so I assume the strings are still valid.

 - The usage of Sword vs SWORD is not consistent. Likewise we have 
   GnomeSword and GnomeSWORD in the same message file. (Even the website 
   is suffering from this.) Since it is called the SWORD project I assume 
   we should call it GnomeSWORD.

 - Found typo's:

#: src/gs_gui.c:280
msgid "Infotmation About The Sword Project"
msgstr ""

#: src/gs_setup.c:278
msgid "SWORD verson"
msgstr ""
