| Line 7: | Line 8: |
| 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]. | = Cómo participar = |
| Line 9: | Line 10: |
| 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. | El facese parte del grupu de traductores d''''Ubuntu''' al Asturianu permitete mandar les tornes ensin tener que ser aprobaes, votar nes normes del grupu, etc. |
| Line 11: | Line 12: |
| 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. | '''NOTA IMPORTANTE''': Anguaño, tolos trabayos de traducción de programes y aplicaciones d''''Ubuntu''', asina como otros proyeutos de software llibre en Llingua Asturiana, tan coordinándose dende [http://wiki.altuxa.com/softastur SOFTASTUR].

| 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. | Primero, pa faete sociu del grupu de '''Ubuntu Asturian Translators''' sigui estos pasos: |

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. 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. |

| == 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 45: |
| 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 traducción = |
