Bug ID: 466972
Summary: Difficulty translating kmymoney.cpp i18n string "save
storage"
Classification: Applications
Product: kmymoney
Version: git (master)
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kmymoney-devel at kde.org
Reporter: okellogg at users.sourceforge.net
Target Milestone: ---
On git master kmymoney/kmymoney.cpp class KMyMoneyApp functions slotFileSave
and slotFileSaveAs,
there are the i18n strings
"Failed to save your storage."
"Couldn't find suitable plugin to save your storage."
"Couldn't find any plugin for saving storage."
I find this hard to translate.
Translating it literally (to Esperanto) gives
"Malsukcesis konservi vian konservejon."
"Ne eblis trovi [...]programon por konservi vian konservejon."
"Ne eblis trovi [...]programon por konservi konservejon."
The duplication "to save" (konservi) and "storage" (konservejo) looks strange.
What is meant by "storage"?
Could it be thought of as "data"?
Please either change the term "storage" to something clearer, or (if that is
not adequate) provide i18n context for easier translation.
Many thanks.
