Getting Linux Lite Translated into your Language - Valtam - 06-22-2023 DO NOT SUBMIT ANY REQUESTS OR TRANSLATIONS YET - WE ARE BUILDING OUT THIS SECTION OVER TIME AND IT IS CURRENTLY INCOMPLETE THANK YOU. We're finding that many people are contacting us wanting to contribute translations, but when faced with the process of using a service like Transifex, they are unable to understand the steps involved due to a lack of programming and code knowledge and ability. We want to open this process up to as many people as possible, from all walks of life and from all backgrounds and abilities. So, we decided to create this Template for people to make it easier to help Linux Lite to be more understandable to the community. How do I ask for my Language to be included in Linux Lite? As of June 2023, we are translating the following items only: Desktop Icons - ie. This PC, User Files, Network, Control Panel, Help Manual Right Click Menus Linux Lite Application Menu entries - eg. Lite Software My Computer Menu entries - Menu, My Computer and then the various folder names ie. File System, Home, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Public, Templates, Videos Favorites Menu entries - Menu, Favorites - Install Updates, Help Manual Home Folder Names - ie. Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Public, Templates, Videos General Menu entries: These are mostly handled by the application developers themselves, but you are free to submit your changes anyway. If they don't make it into our translations, then it is a bet that it needs to be handled by the original developer. Future Translations: All Linux Lite built and branded applications, eg. Lite Software, Lite Tweaks etc. How to submit a request to have your Language translated: NOTE: ONLY translate the bolded text. Language: My Language here Linux Lite translations required. Please copy and paste the following to a new reply in this thread and replace the English words with your language. Example submission for the Filipino language: Name[XX]=Ang PC na ito replace This PC with your translated text.
