Hey Björn,
Right now, I'm just talking about translating the interface of Pd itself. It would be great to also translate the learning materials and even help patches too, that's a much bigger question.
For translating Pd's interface, just create an account in Transifex and edit the translation file, or create a new one if your language isn't there. That's pretty straightforward, you'll see a list of all the English words and phrases used in the interface, and next to it you write the translation:
https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/puredata/
For documentation, I don't know much about tools for helping translate prose, but I do know that the FLOSS Manuals site is well setup to host translations. So perhaps a good place to start would be to make a translation of the Pure Data manual there. And of course, if you find things you should update in the English version, please go ahead and update them as you see fit:
http://en.flossmanuals.net/PureData/
As for the help patches, that's a harder question right now because we don't have a way to host help patches of multiple languages. It would be a matter of replacing all the help patches included in Pd-extended with your translated ones. I suppose that could be scripted so it wouldn't be hard to do. Ideally, someone will add localization support to pd patches, then each help patch could contain multiple languages.

Hello Hans-Christoph! Sorry for not getting back to you before now... 1st: thanks for explaining! Now it´s clear about what´s the translation activities are about! 2nd: I think what might be possible is to start with a transifex translation work - and from there see how things go 3rd: Yeah... Floss manuals would be great to translate. I think all these things will be a matter of available time. I will start with the transifex soon I hope!
I might give you a question or two if there is some things around the transifex that i dont get.

Hi all,
I am trying to get to the translation, but cannot for some reason.
I get a warning: "This translation is locked by someone else."
Are we not trying to achieve a single spanish translation?

¡Hola Jaime!
the system is locking the ones which are worked on. if you look at the overview page https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/puredata/resource/templatepot/ you can see which ones are currently locked. when clicking on them it will tell you for how many more minutes the lock is valid.
i don't know how significant the differences between mexican and castilian are, but someone decided to make a mexican translation first. i recon that was rather a political statement then a practical thinking.
i did some small corrections on both such as adding the ¡ and ¿ symbols at the beginnings of exclamations and questions.

Actually, the first complete translation was en_CA. People like their own languages with all the details. I say the more the merrier, let people have it the way they like it :-) Maybe I'll make a de_US and make my own translation in my bastard German . Or Amish German. ;)

So perhaps a good place to start would be to make a translation of the Pure Data manual there. And of course, if you find things you should update in the English version, please go ahead and update them as you see fit:
http://en.flossmanuals.net/PureData/
As for the help patches, that's a harder question right now because we don't have a way to host help patches of multiple languages. It would be a matter of replacing all the help patches included in Pd-extended with your translated ones. I suppose that could be scripted so it wouldn't be hard to do. Ideally, someone will add localization support to pd patches, then each help patch could contain multiple languages.

Hello, sending this offlist as I am so bad updated on the status of the translation works in general for Pd. As I am regulary holding Pure Data courses here in Sweden, then I have more than twice been thinking it would be good to start some translation works for Swedish... but at same time I am not interested to start something that seems too complicated and troublesome. So I have some basic questions you might answer...
- How is the translation implemented.
- Is it mainly the help pd files that the translation are for
- Will it be possible to invite other contributors for the translations (into swedish)
- Will there be some responsibility to announce and update indifferent web resources.
in other words:... maybe it´s already explained and I can read more somewhere - or maybe you can just hit me a little? or just answer the questions? or i post this to the pd list and someone there can demystify this for me.
Surely I could look around and search for some of these answers myself, but just in case it´s easily answered - I am eager to listen.

For now, the transifex project is wide open to any contributor. We can change that to team-based permissions if anyone wants. Even better, if someone could take over the admin of the transifex project and leave me to work on other Pd things :-D

Hi Hans,
in case the translation is identical to the template, then the translation-field should better be left empty or should be copied anyway?

Hey Björn,
Right now, I'm just talking about translating the interface of Pd itself. It would be great to also translate the learning materials and even help patches too, that's a much bigger question.
For translating Pd's interface, just create an account in Transifex and edit the translation file, or create a new one if your language isn't there. That's pretty straightforward, you'll see a list of all the English words and phrases used in the interface, and next to it you write the translation:
https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/puredata/

So perhaps a good place to start would be to make a translation of the Pure Data manual there.

That seems to depend on the translators and editing software. I don't think there is a strong technical reason to do it either way. transifex encourages people to copy over the English untranslated rather than leave it blank since it has those progress bars that only count fields that have content in them.

It's easier to be consistent if each thing is only once in the translation file. Thus "ms" would be translated as a single string separate from every other string, and strings would be joined together at runtime to make it impossible to make an inconsistent translation.

It's true for that particular example.
However it's in fact a common culprit to do so. All languages do not share the same word order, or even the same logic for expressing things. Think of how to express plurality or negation for example. In some languages you can't just paste bits of sentence and make sense. You have to rephrase.
I believe/hope the transilex platform has some guide/howto for the translator wanabees.
Cheers,

I think that "%s (%s)" is a fairly simple pattern that will work across languages. Plurals are a completely different matter, and you shouldn't conflate them just to pretend that "%s (%s)" would be bad for units of measurement.

That would be good to have in a bug report, or even better, a patch to apply to pd.

¡Hola Jaime!
the system is locking the ones which are worked on. if you look at the overview page https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/puredata/resource/templatepot/ you can see which ones are currently locked. when clicking on them it will tell you for how many more minutes the lock is valid.
i don't know how significant the differences between mexican and castilian are, but someone decided to make a mexican translation first. i recon that was rather a political statement then a practical thinking.
i did some small corrections on both such as adding the ¡ and ¿ symbols at the beginnings of exclamations and questions.

It looks as though units named after people are capitalized (Hertz, Newton, Farad vs meter, liter, gram).
kcal is also written Cal capitalised. Both cal and Cal exist, for both main definitions of calorie.
Apart from that, I think that the rule that you are stating is remarkably consistent all over metric units and related units.

Hello,
When i did the french translation i kept such inconsistencies (msec/ms) to glue to Pd native appearance ; i think translations may respect the size of the string (to help GUI geometry manager) ; (i mean french is always longuer than english so i had to modify a little bit sometimes to keep it short).
So my opinion : FIRST change this inconsistencies in the english version and translators will do it AFTER for the others.

ok, if that's settled then let's adress a few other inconsistencies in the audio dialog:
sample rate:____ delay (msec):_____<- why is there a unit for the delay and not for the sample rate? also i'm not sure about the capitalisation. why is it all small? at least in german that would be all capitalized.
proposed: sample rate(Hz):____ delay (ms):_____
