Yep, was hoping someone would catch that ;).

Eventually. At the moment, no one else is helping with the code side of localising, so it's up to me to fit in amongst the 10 billion other responsibilities I have. We'll get there eventually.

I did a full revision of the italian translation (fixing a lot of silly mistakes), completing it (game tab only) up to today's strings.

Regarding this string
[Line 545] Online:

Am I the only one having problems to make this string fit in my language? I believe it would be much easier if there were two different strings: one that is shown when YOU log in and displays all your friends who are ALREADY playing, and another one which is shown when a FRIEND has just logged in.

I don't see any problem with it. You can use another word if needed, like "Connected:" / "Disconnected:" like I did in French.

Yes, I've tried different things such as that one, but then the problem is gender and number, which don't match.


There are a lot of languages in the table which have left "online / offline" untranslated... guess I am not the only one having problems with that. I could do the same, but then I don't see the point of having that string available for translation.

I had the same problem but I made sure to combine singular/plural in a single word: "connecté" (sing.) and "connectés" (plur.) give "connecté(s)"; masculine by default but it's possible to add the feminine genre in a similar fashion.

Don't know if it is feasible in Spanish though, I just want to provide some way to bypass the problem :<

Regarding "BeatmapImport_DetectedNewMapsAdded" and "BeatmapImport_DetectedMapsRemoved", I thought it would make more sense if there's a colon, becoming "Detected: new maps added" and "Detected: maps removed" instead of "Detected new maps added" and "Detected maps removed". What do you guys think?

(I know that they actually are the same, but as a non-native-English-speaker I initially find both string a bit confusing without colon)

That "detected" is a modifier for "new maps". If you place a colon there, you are changing the whole sense of that string.


Detected new maps added. (all the maps which have been detected by osu! have been added)

Minor fix for two lines which were overlapping another ones because of long length of some russian words.

Made some translations shorter for Latvian so strings don't overlap.
Also I'm curious why it says "latviešu valoda (latvian language)" and not "Latviešu (Latvian)" like all the other languages.

Just finished the last 8% of the Dutch translation.
Went through every line and made the translations consistent (Three different translations for 'Game') and removed any spelling errors/typos.
But what's up with the self-promoting of the Dutch channel? It contained join #dutch multiple times...

Also, osu! has a lot more text then I expected.

Nowhere near finished adding all localisable strings, either. The editor is going to be another big undertaking.

I'll post it here, so everybody can see it:

!faq taiko-mapping is going to be outdated, the data in there was up to date back in 2010. Now, pretty much from the former guide is going to be covered by the new guide, and much has been added. I think it would be better adding the new guide instead.
I don't know what you guys think about this, post your opinions

A new version has just been uploaded and finally included the new Dutch translation.
However I noticed a few pieces of text that were too long.
When rewriting the Dutch translation I didn't think it would be this noticeable.


Most of these issues could be solved by wording the text slightly different.
Before I do that I wanted to know if I should prioritize exact translation or a translation that still fits and looks good without being too big.
Keep in mind that whenever I change something like "Alles weerge.." I will change it everywhere for the sake of consistency.

Edit: Since no one responded I took matters into my own hand. Interpunction should be consisted across the board according to Dutch interpunction. Text that was too long has been shortened while still remaining it's original translation. Found some other silly translations I didn't find before which have been fixed as well. The Dutch translation should be near perfect now.

Edit 2: Osu!test has just been updated with the new translations. Extremely satisfied with the Dutch translation now. Everything fits nicely and is in proper Dutch. Consistency is also a lot better now.

Due to changes in windows, this requires "Raw Input" to be enabled. It has been turned on for you.
Is this supposed to be Windows or actually windows? Not quite sure.

These new lines were tough to localise :o
Btw peppy, could you add a new line for "240fps"? Around line 32 in the Google Doc.


edit (2014-02-21): I've edited a lot of strings in the French options menu, more specifically in the Input and Online tabs. I wanted to get rid of these numerous "Show", "Hide" and "Enable" verbs that take space for nothing, are very redundant and useless anyway since context is explicit enough for people to understand the meaning of the option even without them. French translators, please take a look and proofread :)

I edited some English strings as well:
MenuTip_6: removed "Ctrl/Space" since nobody use these keys
MenuTip_7 and 11: replaced "FAQ" by "wiki"
FunSpoiler_Dim_Tooltip: removed "(maximum limit: {1}%)" since it is no longer applicable

I'd like to add that I support these changes.
The Dutch translation never had "Ctrl/Space" in the first place as it wouldn't fit well in the sentence.

Just thought it may confuse people if the tooltip says "modeicons will fall" and it won't.

I suppose the Options_UpdateStrategy it's about how often will osu! update versions and CuttingEdge means that it will always update to the latest (the most recent build)

correct me if I'm wrong, though.

There is this note in the doc:

Think of it as the "Update channels" in Firefox: you choose one to get the normal version of a software or a newer but unstable one, etc.

It's the same thing here, "stable" being the public build of osu! and "cutting edge" being the test build.

Will these be localisable? (Top right, yellow markers + the drop-down menus.) They are not skin elements, or are they?

Also, anyone else find it impossible to type a '}' character on Google Docs? :?

Is it possible to create a glossary/terminology sheet?

I have seen like 3 different Japanese translations for "beatmap" alone (the translation contexts are all the same):
譜面
譜面ファイル
ビートマップ

I know there's a row for the translation of "Beatmap" (MatchSetup_Beatmap) but I don't think everyone will search for it and it will probably be easier to just have a translation standard for osu! terminology.

Edit:

Also "Video":
動画
ビデオ

I've done most of the translation to Turkish, things that people come across the most were my priority. Editor is still being worked on though and will probably be done whenever I have more spare time. I wonder, will we be able to get any credit for the translations we've done? Also some tips need context in order for us to make an accurate translation

I added a bunch to the Hebrew section, but got stuck on 3 lines that I couldn't quite figure out if anyone is willing to help?

Letterbox breaks conflicts with {0} diff.
Audio preview time conflicts with {0} diff.
Audio lead-in conflicts with {0} diff.
I think I know what they mean, but I don't want to mess it up! :D

Basically:
  1. The letterbox option is the insertion of black bars on top and bottom of the screen during pauses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letterbox
  2. Audio preview time is the moment when the music starts when navigating in the song select screen.
  3. Audio lead-in is this: https://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/Song_Setup#Music_Lead-In
The "conflict" thingy is when the same option is not set at the same value throughout the difficulties of the map.

Nah, the faq sheet of the Google Doc refers to the BanchoBot commands, and the web sheet to something that has never been implemented (yet?)

If anything, if there should be something in Hebrew, it's in the wiki. There is still nothing in Hebrew in it though.
