Traducir o no: js.emoji_picker.[key]

[SidV]

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
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:

js.emoji_picker.people People
js.emoji_picker.people 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 appear.

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

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