Is there a Spanish version?

AI-generated summary

The discussion revolves around the availability of a Spanish version of Discourse. wm00 started by inquiring about using the script for a Spanish site. Mittineague replied that Spanish is one of the more complete translations, with 97% of strings translated.

SidV pointed out that while some translations are not complete, they are being worked on. They also inquired about the translation of the word “validate” and were made a reviewer for the Spanish Argentina locale.

Fer_Nando completed the Spanish version, but reviewers have some work to do. SidV questioned the existence of multiple Spanish versions (e.g., “es”, “es_ES”, “es_AR”) and was informed by elijah that the bare “es” refers to general Spanish, while country-specific versions use a hyphen and country code.

Later, absi reported that their site’s Terms of Service (TOS) remained in English despite the site being in Spanish. SidV explained that they had translated the TOS in the past, but updates to Discourse would often revert them to English. They provided links to a discussion on translating TOS and a GitHub repository for their translations. After investigating, SidV suspected a bug and pointed to a related discussion on the issue.

Totalmente de acuerdo, y lo que no está traducido, lo estamos traduciendo :wink: :es:

Anyway, do you know how “validate” translates @Mittineague ?
Ah, I need to be “Reviewer” :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks, I’ve already copy es_ES to es_AR, now I review, and I’ll change to argentinian idioms :blush:

Now Spanish from Argentina is translated in 100% too :thumbsup:

If you need help reviewing es_ES, just let me know.

Gracias @Fer_Nando

A doubt @zogstrip, why is there a “ES” version, and then other “es_AR”, “es_ES”, etc.
The “es” version for what purpose exist?

11

See RFC 4646 - Tags for Identifying Languages “Tags for Identifying Languages” for example. The bare “es” is just Spanish (español). Bare “en” is just English. If you want a specific version, you ask for the version with your region (hyphen country code, not underscore). And absent that specific version, you want to fall back to the general one: just “es”.

Thanks @elijah, but in this case “es” version is equal for “es_ES” version.
As a reviewer, I can not review both versions, it’s a waste of time.

13

Yes, I was a bit confused on why there would be both. Seems redundant to me.
I’m guessing the more general “es” was started before it was realized that country specific translations would be needed

Mi sitio está en español, pero los TOS permanecieron en inglés.

ÂżAlguna idea para una soluciĂłn sencilla?

TOS translated but stayed in English

The truth is that I translated the ToS a long time ago, and every time Discourse changes something, they put them back in English, so I got tired, hehe… It’s not an easy task to translate all the ToS into Spanish.

Here is the discussion to talk about the ToS in Spanish: Términos de Servicio (tos_topic.body) 🇪🇸

I created a complete repository so I wouldn’t have to start from scratch every time Discourse updated the terms: https://github.com/SidVal/SidV/tree/master/discourse

If you want to join the Transifex team to help with each translation, you are welcome.
Here I explain how you need to join: https://meta.discourse.org/t/como-traducir-con-transifex/104566

Update: @absi, I have checked the ToS on Transifex, and they are indeed translated. Which Spanish language variant are you using? :thinking: Do you have the latest version of Discourse?

17

@SidV Well, the truth is I don’t know why it’s still in English. The privacy policy is in Spanish. Is there a way to fix it?

18

I checked there and it seems to be a bug; let’s see what they say here: TOS translated but stayed in English

Greetings
