Translation Template

The following table can be used to translate the application. If you are interested in a translation, please open a new Issue in the bug tracker with the label 'translation'. Please define the translated language as well in the title or text of the issue. It is important to know whether a special dialect is translated (e.g. Portuguese [PT-pt] vs Brazilian Portuguese [PT-br]).

Please make sure that all texts with curly brackets (e.g. {1}) are also with the same number of brackte pairs in the translation. Each bracket pair is a variable that is replaced during runtime of the application. A mismatch may lead to a crash of the application. Please also consider the punctuation. A trailing dot (.) may indicate that the text is concatenated to a bigger whole sentence.

If you are a .NET developer, you can also create a copy of Resources.resx (in the Properties folder) for to translate the terms. Pull requests are welcome. Alternatively, a spreadsheet or text file with the translations can be attached in the issue.

The console application TranslationHelper can also be used to export translation stings form the current application version.

Please, don't hesitate to ask in the issue, if the context of a term is not clear

For a translation is just a copy of the whole table below (with name and translation column necessary) necessary.

This table is also available as Excel file, as well as an independent file with comments, assigned to the keys / names (since comments are not available by code, calling items from a .resx file).
