Language definitions
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
In order to properly present different translation Weblate needs to know some
|
|
information about used languages. Currently it comes with definitions for
|
|
about 200 languages and the definition include language name, text direction,
|
|
plural definitions and language code.
|
|
|
|
Parsing language codes
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
While parsing translations, Weblate attempts to map language code (usually ISO
|
|
639-1 one) to existing language object. If it can not find exact match, it
|
|
tries to find best fit in existing languages (eg. it ignores default country
|
|
code for given language - choosing ``cs`` instead of ``cs_CZ``). Should this
|
|
fail as well, it will create new language definition using the defaults (left
|
|
to right text direction, one plural) and naming the language
|
|
:guilabel:``xx_XX (generated)``. You might want to change this in the admin
|
|
interface (see :ref:`changing-languages`) and report it to our issue tracker
|
|
(see :ref:`contributing`).

Changing language defintions
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can change language definitions in the admin interface (see
|
|
:ref:`admin-interface`). The :guilabel:`Weblate languages` section
|
|
allows you to change or add language definitions. While editing make sure that
|
|
all fields are correct (especially plurals and text direction), otherwise the
|
|
translators won't be able to properly edit those translations.
