[gcompris-devel] GCompris I18n and Localisation

[Isam Bayazidi]

Hi all..
   I am working on translating GCompris to Arabic Language to have it 
used in my cousin's Kindergarten and school.. Work on the ar.po file is 
going fine.. but I need to ask about other localization and 
internationalization issues.. such as the word lists, sounds, currency 
(for that nice money game) Changing Countries and maps (for that Country 
map game), and so..
   If there a Document where it has detailed information about the 
localization and I18n of Gcompris ? and is localization to that extent 
(money, and maps) possible in the first place ? for instanse in the 
match game, a Tree and a Star is a match, this makes sense to those that 
have mas trees, but other parts of the world this is not a match.. can I 
change things to make it look more Arabic ? making a Desert picture and 
a Camel Picture and making a match ? can I add/remove from the 
items/pictures used in the games ? Again.. is this documented ?

another thing.. there is those "apple/_pple/a/g/f" strings in the ar.po 
.. I translated those, fine.. but in the Work game it is still 
displaying the English Strings ..

Thank you all for such great project.. I will ofcourse give back all my 
work to you once I am done.. and if such localization and i18n is not 
documented I would be glad to document it to help further localization ..

Yours
