Hi, so since no one else has requested it so far, I’d like to volunteer to be coordinator for Icelandic. I’ve done some translating for matrix-synapse in the past.
Not sure how many people out of 350k are using sailfish, but more languages never hurt anyone! My username is maquis196.
@maquis196 Aren’t danish and icelandic really similar? Wouldn’t it then be the easiest way to copy the danish translation files and edit does who defer Just a thaught. Nice to see another language coming to SFOS Good luck!
Icelandic to Danish is more like Latin compared to French, so copying the Danish/Norwegian/Swedish translations would cause more work than translating from scratch. A potential future Faroese translation would, however, be able to rely on the Icelandic translation a little bit.
Not very similar, it is more similar to Old Norse / Old Scandinavian, a branch of its own. Although very international people, they like to invent/use their own words/language.
Yeah as others have said, a few words will be similar but the grammar is quite different,doesn’t help that Danish has long since dropped þ and ð. Modern words will be the biggest divergence too (especially around IT)
Veit ekki hvernig fólk tekur í þetta, en væri hægt að nota gervigreind til að þýða?
En að einhver þarf að fara yfir og samþykja þýðinguna svo? Ég hef opnað og byrjað að þýða marg oft, en þetta er rosalegt magn af texta sem þarf að þýða. Það væri mun auðveldara að fara yfir og laga frekar en að skrifa alt.
