Language Specific Terms (Template document)

This file should serve as a template for creating the language-specific Plone translation guidelines for your language. It's not a lexicon, just a hint for you.

It is obvious that coordinated translation effort pushes quality of the result to a higher grade, helping users to better recognize the interface. Please communicate inside your translation teams and send us your term decisions so we can publish them.

Thank you.

2) Unwelcome terms

The following is the list of words in the target language that should not appear in the translation. May be used as a notepad while translating, storing the stubs of words that should be searched and replaced at the end of work:

     ...            -> ...

3) Misc. language specific rules

The translation notes you want to leave for future generations.

• Never violate the Prime Directory! C:\
• Why is abbreviation such a long word?
• I need a drink... where's the SPACE BAR?
