Norwegian bokmål: Third party apps that can be translated?

Localisation
1

I translate applications to Norwegian bokmål. I prefer doing translation work on Weblate and on Codeberg.

Needless to say, I use many of the apps more or less on a daily basis.

Note: Not all translations are available as apps have yet to be made available in a new version.

My goal when I started was that the 10 most commonly used third party apps should be available in my language. I ended up with a 60+ apps that I will try to keep up-to-date. I encourage you to do the same! There will be many new community members from this summer… and a nice welcome is to have apps available in their language!

The latest update of BitSailor includes the Norwegian bokmål translations.

This weekend I also completed the Norwegian translations for Captain’s Log.

It is gonna be a busy work week, so I guess there will be no status updates before the weekend.

Thank you for your offer!

I’m sure Opal Components would benefit from your work - AND you’ll help out a many apps all at once!

Translations are done here - there’s bokmål already, but incomplete ATM.

So, added OPAL also to the list.

Will have to say stop for now and complete translations of the projects added to my weblate page. Also want to complete two translation projects started by others, Storeman and To-do Lists, and translations of Tidings.

With that I want to say Im fully booked.

You’re not fully booked until you lies on your death bed. Just put them in the queue. :wink:

Me? I’m up to +1000 translations and counting. Well it took some time… almost 20 years. So they are not all Sailfish. :face_with_tongue:

Short status update: 15 translation projects completed.

I hope to see some app updates in OpenRepos and Chum :slight_smile:

Working on Tidings and Opal Gallery as the next projects, and I love seeing that most of the apps I use are available or are about to be available in Norwegian.

I don’t plan doing to much more translation work, but rather keep these 15-20 apps updated when it comes to Norwegian translations. I hope Norwegian users will appreciate them, but also come with suggestions for improvements and letting me know of misspellings.

Happy sailing!

Thank you @frankps that’s awesome! By translating Opal you automatically partly translated about ~20 apps too that are using Opal modules. :slight_smile: And also thank you @eson for your tireless work!

Just a short update from me. I have completed translations to Norwegian bokmål of 36 Questions, Opal Gallery and Expenditure over at Weblate, and by that I completed my planned translation work - but there is always one last thing: Sailtrix!

My plan is to maintain these translations and do a few more apps that use Weblate for translation work.

Enjoy - and please with suggestions to improvements!

I wonder how many of the new Community Members are Norwegian?

Oh, oh, I said no more app translations for a while. But by accident I’ve translated the Chum GUI app to Norwegian bokmål.

Just have to submit it somehow… I’m not permitted to fork the repository to propose the translation. Can somebody please help?

I believe the preferred way to translate Chum GUI is Transifex:
