A few instructions from the early days of Bengli l10n from Ankur Bangla Project | |||
''While translating, remember not to kill the language ;-). Do not overdo the | |||
translation - do not use Sadhu Basha . Also, when the computer is addressing | |||
the user, it is samman-shuchak (karun, balun, etc) while the computer is | |||
addressed by karo, balo, etc. If a Bangla equivalent sounds too out of the | |||
ordinary - keep the English word (in Bangla script) - it can be always | |||
changed/improved later. DO NOT overdo anything. | |||
Also, keep proper nouns and trademarks/brandnames as they are. (Bourne Again | |||
Shell (BASH) should not be called Aabaar Bourne Shell). | |||
Use the more common word (jaanlaa and not gabaakhya). Also always remember | |||
that the words need not be very much applicable to the actual action - an | |||
Englishman from the nineteenth century could not even have guessed what | |||
"Save" can do in a computer ;-). | |||
If you have comments regarding a certain translated string, please write that | |||
(commented out with a "#"), so that we can go through it later. If you have | |||
more than one equivalent string in your mind, writ''e all of them, and comment | |||
all of them except the one you think is the best. | |||
