Let the Arabic translation commence!

The subjunctive is tricky in English. :wink:

Dear don570,

thank you for trying to teach correct Canadian English.

I have no idea what subjunctive is and I do not really want to know what it is.
You might promote the slogan Let the games commence if olympics will ever come to Canada.

Back to topic of Arabic langpack:
That has already commenced some time ago
My wish May Arabic translation continue is about continuation after the break caused by buggy jwm.

My regards

Hello,

Actually I got busy with my studies, and since I downloaded the precise puppy, installed it and it doesn't work quite right (sometimes it didn't load the Kernel).
I was a little disappointment of that thing and I lost hope in precise puppy.

I formatted my old XP to 7, and I don't want to use lin'n'win on 7 system.
But, I still on my Wary by a flash drive (I don't use it a lot).

I really want to say "Thanks"......After your posts I'm going to continue the translation. I'm getting back my hope in puppy, so I will.

Thanks

I tried an Arabic translation of copy-fast
using yudit.

I noticed an odd bug. (underlined in red) Notice that the English
number is in front of Arabic phrase.

Here is the code that causes the bug....
$VERSION is an English number.

Code: Select all

<window title=" '$(gettext 'Fast Copy')'    '$VERSION'" resizable="true" decorated="true">

Seems you have forgot to read it from right to left. :wink:

...and "English" numbers are Arabic numbers.

Yes. You are right. The number should be on left side. :oops:

Xdialog must have some way of checking for a number if
Arabic is locale.
