Traducir o no: js.emoji_picker.[key]

AI-generated summary

La discusión se centra en si debemos traducir las descripciones de las categorías de emojis en distintos idiomas. SidV inicialmente opina que no deberían ser traducidas, ya que considera que son la descripción de cada emoji. Sin embargo, Apecengo argumenta que estas descripciones afectan solo al selector de emojis y que sería más lógico traducirlas para mejorar la experiencia del usuario. SidV sigue manteniendo su postura inicial, pero Apecengo aclara que su propuesta se refiere a traducir las descripciones de las categorías, como “People” a “Personas”. Finalmente, SidV entiende el punto de vista de Apecengo y corrige las descripciones de las categorías, compartiendo una captura de pantalla para futuras referencias.

I wanted to open a debate about the new words that have appeared to see if they should be translated (or not) into different languages.

It seems to be the description of each emoji :neutral_face:
In my opinion, it should not be translated, but I want to leave the debate open so you can tell me what you think, in order to know whether we translate these words or not.

Example:

:uk: js.emoji_picker.people :arrow_right: People
:es: js.emoji_picker.people :arrow_right: Personas


Should these words be translated?

  • Yes, they should be translated
  • No, they should not be translated

I hate to reopen this, but I see they still aren’t translated and there wasn’t much consensus.

In this case, honestly, I don’t see why the categories shouldn’t be translated. If they were emoji codes like :dog:, I could understand some debate, but as for the categories… They don’t affect anything except the emoji picker. It’s not the description of each emoji as @SidV mentions.

This is how it appears:

In my opinion, it looks completely out of place. Honestly, I would translate it.

If only three people have discussed the topic since July 2017, it doesn’t make much sense to talk about a consensus.

I understand that it is indeed the description of the emoji.
Imagine if instead of typing :dog:, I had to type :dog: to make :dog: appear.

Yes, well, you’re right that there can’t be consensus; I wasn’t saying it in a bad way :slightly_smiling_face:

As far as I know, emojis cannot be translated as of today. What I’m suggesting would be beneficial to translate are the category descriptions:

  • People :arrow_right: People
  • Nature :arrow_right: Nature
  • Food :arrow_right: Food
  • Celebration :arrow_right: Celebrations
  • Activity :arrow_right: Activities
  • Travel :arrow_right: Travel
  • Objects :arrow_right: Objects
  • Custom emojis :arrow_right: Custom emojis

Ah, okay, now I understand. I have corrected them!

I’m leaving a screenshot so I remember where they are in the future, as I didn’t remember:

Let me know if you want any changes :+1:
