Chinese (Simplified) translation

[hilbert-yaa]

Hi Martin @mgeisler ! I've had a conversation with you via email about this translation a week ago. I'm working on this issue rn.

Edit by @mgeisler: See #324 (comment) below for instructions.

Sounds great. I'm currently taking this project as a reference.

Hey @mgeisler: I saw that there's a machine-translated version by running the i18n script, could you run the script for the zh_CN locale for us?

(I think Hilbert had a similar script but we noticed some off-by-one errors..., so just wanted to see if these errors are specific to zh_CN locale.)

Thanks!

Hi @kiwiwarmnfuzzy, the script it here: #291. I asked the other translators, and they tell me that they haven't seen the same off-by-one errors.

Here is the output from a fresh run of that script: zh_CN.zip.

Oh no worries I wasn't using your script. And thanks this output looks good - we can start from here.

Great to hear that!

Hi there, just a small note: please rename the file to zh-CN.po so that the translation will eventually appear under .../zh-CN/. The _ to - change should give us the right kind of language tag and this is the style we used for the Brazilian Portuguese translation in #381.

From reading https://developers.google.com/search/docs/specialty/international/localized-versions, I'm thinking we should name the Simplified Chinese translation zh-Hans like @taotieren does in #436.

Got it. I've been occupied by my COVID and ISCA rebuttal lately. Will work on this from the coming week.

Ugh, sorry to hear that! I had COVID myself last year and it was not fun at all... Good luck with the conference! 🙂

Thanks for the kind words :)
