Dear All

 

1. Could you please advise if incomplete strings such as below are intentional or erroneous:

 

#: ../../koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/help/acqui/acqui-home.tmpl:2

msgid ""

"You do not need to use Acquisitions to add items to your catalogue. If you 

do not want to track orders and budget expenditure, then use the"

msgstr ""

#: ../../koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/help/admin/marctagstructure.tmpl:9
#: ../../koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/help/admin/marc_subfields_structure.tmpl:9
#: ../../koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/help/admin/auth_subfields_structure.tmpl:9
msgid ""
"You can define as the marc tag structure for each biblio framework you have "
"defined"
msgstr ""
 
2. I thought stings in French would be translated into English in Beta version, but they are still in French. Will they be translated at some stage?
 
3. Turkish syntax is
 completely different from English and strings do not always fit correctly. Is there anything that can be done about this problem?
 
Regards
 
Selma

There are more of them, and I totally agree that it should only be full
sentences in one and the same string to make it possible to translate it
correctly. Sometimes variables also gives weird results (can give you
examples if this is not known).

To the same (internationalisation): Some of the fields where also to
small to fit the whole translated santence, at best they should have
unlimited length (or, at least, permit also long sentences).

Best regards

Could you give some concrete examples that point to the specific problems
you're having? I assume you're familiar with the use and placement of
the variables, which can be done as needed per language?
