Instructions for translators

Welcome

Welcome and thank you for your willingness to contribute to jamovi with translations. This is the place where we host translations for jamovi (the statistical spreadsheet; https://www.jamovi.org/) itself. If you would like to contribute to the jamovi documentation please visit https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/jamovidocs/ and if you would like to contribute to the translation of the jamovi textbook (Learning statistics with jamovi; lsj) please visit https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/lsjdocs/

Important information for translators

Translations for each language are designated one of three statuses; production, in development, or hidden. By default, translations will be designated in development. Translations which are in development will not be automatically assigned to users who's device is set to that language, and must be selected from the language menu. Once designated as production, users who's device is set to that language will be presented with that language (provided they have their language settings set to system default).

To transition a language from in development to production, you can add a "X-Status: production\n" line to the raw .po file. Feel free to drop the jamovi admins a line if you don't feel confident doing this.

There are some special characters that are used for formatting parts of the strings that you may translate. If you find terms preceded by the $-sign (e.g., $key) or enclosed by curly brackets {} (e.g., {n}) or backticks ` (e.g., `data`), they should be kept as they are (it is perhaps easiest to just copy-and-paste them from the original English string).

We're increasingly using machine translation to speed up the translation process, and so it may appear that a language is completely translated, when the strings actually need review. When translating, if you see the "Needs editing" checkbox checked, that means that term needs review. You'll need to interact with that item for it to exit the review state, and become available in jamovi.

Announcement posted

hi translators!

thank you for your efforts so far, it's really exciting to see jamovi available in so many languages.

this is a quick note to let you know that if you've added a recent translation for jamovi (one which isn't available in the desktop version just yet), i've made the translations available from the cloud version. you can see how your translation appears here:

https://cloud.jamovi.org

currently, the cloud version does not let you choose a translation from a list (the way the desktop version does), so you'll need to set your browser language settings accordingly.

for the desktop version, we've introduced the idea of in development and production translations. here's a description:

By default, translations will be designated in development. Translations which are in development will not be automatically assigned to users who's device is set to that language, and must be selected from the language menu. Once designated as production, users who's device is set to that language will be presented with that language (provided they have their language settings set to system default).

To transition a language from in development to production, you can add a "X-Status: production\n" line to the raw .po file. Feel free to drop the jamovi admins a line if you don't feel confident doing this.
