| Our intention is to maintain a central communications channel for en-GB based languages. Generally, this includes the forms of English spoken in Commonwealth countries such as the [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-en-gb United Kingdom], [wiki:IndianTeam India], [wiki:AustralianTranslationTeam Australia], [wiki:SouthAfricanTeam South Africa] and [wiki:CanadianTeam Canada]. | La nuesa intencion lle la de mantener un canal de comunicacion xeneral i comun pa toes les derivaciones del Asturianu (Ocidental / Oriental / Central), pa la torna de esti (i otros) sistemas operativos al Asturianu. |
| Line 9: | Line 9: |
| These variants are almost identical in their written forms, so it makes sense for some communication and co-operation to take place. We hope to eliminate the duplication of effort that is currently taking place in regards to translations. | Estes variantes son casi indentiques nel xeitu de ser escrites y falaes, polo que faz sentiu la "sestaferia". |
| Line 11: | Line 11: |
| Our translations are based on [https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+lang/en_GB British English]. That effort is headquartered [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-en-gb here]. Essentially, we are producing an internationalised form of en_GB. | |
| Line 13: | Line 12: |
| We do not intend to restrict the activities of local translation groups, but rather to provide a common base for everyone to build upon. Through co-operation, we hope to strengthen rather than weaken localised versions of English. | Nun queremos restrinxir les traduciones locales que se fagan de esti sistema operativu, mas bien algamamos el furrular como gabitu entre les diferentes variantes del asturianu, pa servir como base y fortalecer la posibilida de traducir sistemas abiertos a cuantes mas variantes de Asturianu mellor. |

| == Table of translations == The bulk of our translation effort is simple word substitution. To streamline this process and to maintain consistency, we are compiling a [wiki:EnglishTranslation/WordSubstitution table of translations]. Please help us by contributing to that table. As a quick guide, refer to our ''table of common translations'', below. |
== Tabla de Tornes == La mallor parte del esfuerzu, en terminos de torna, lle simplemente la de sustituir pallabres.

| Line 43: | Line 37: |
| For the ''Check Spelling'' function on the wiki to function correctly, we should also add our words to the [wiki:LocalSpellingWords Local Spelling Words] list. | |
| Line 46: | Line 39: |
| Our primary tool is [https://translations.launchpad.net/ Rosetta], Ubuntu's Web-based translation tool.

| Although already an excellent tool, Rosetta suffers from a number of [https://blueprints.launchpad.net/rosetta deficiencies] that may be of hindrance to our project.

| == Greasemonkey script == Team member [https://launchpad.net/people/malcolm-parsons Malcolm Parsons] maintains a [http://pepsiman.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/translate.user.js Greasemonkey script] to ease the translation process in Rosetta. It is updated at irregular intervals, so you will need to update periodically. Be sure to remove any previously installed versions before installing a new version. |
|
| Line 57: | Line 47: |
| Note that the script merely makes suggestions for word substitutions (based on [wiki:EnglishTranslation/WordSubstitution our table of translations]). It does not check punctuation, grammar or style. It would be unfeasible for us (or evidently anyone else) to produce an automated corrector of these elements, so they must be assessed manually. | = Guies de traduccion = |
