Aaaaalmost there
Now I'm on 99%. What is left, is phrases where I need som clarifications. Since the phrases often are named after its english translation, the names are not helping in understanding the purpose of a word/phrase or where it is used.
MsgResources.resx
TheCommunityIsRequired - What "Community" and when is this message shown? My guess is that it should have been "Community string" used with SNMP.
TheDataSourceEmailIsRequired - So, does the data source need an e-mail message or an e-mail address?
XYXZTransferredIn - What is transferred in? Where is this used. There are no clues to what meaning the parameters have.
XHasInvitedYouToJoinRemoteSupportSession - A remote what? There is no clue to what the {1}-parameter is.

UIResources.resx - lblSpaceCreationDot
Where is this used?
Can I expect a noun infront like "Item creation". That wold be bad. In swedish I must sometimer translate this into "Skapar produkt" (verb+space+noun) or "Produktskapande'' (no space and the noun+verb transformed into a noun.

Hi Alex
TheCommunityIsRequired: Exactly it's the community used in the SMNP
TheDataSourceEmailIsRequired: it's used by RDMO and the data source is linked to your email
Here is the usage for XYXZTransferredIn
string outstring = string.Format(
MsgResources.XYXZTransferredIn,
this.totalFilesTransferred,
this.totalFilesTransferred > 1 ? BusinessResources.FilesLowercase : BusinessResources.FileLowercase,
this.totalBytesTransferred,
this.totalBytesTransferred > 1 ? BusinessResources.BytesLowercase : BusinessResources.ByteLowercase);
message = string.Format(
MsgResources.XHasInvitedYouToJoinRemoteSupportSession, config.UserName, "Support Session") + ",";
where Support Session could also be Meeting
For the last one: lblSpaceCreationDot. This resource is deprecated and it will be removed in the next update
David Hervieux
Thank you David.
MsgResources.TheDataSourceEmailIsRequired - So the answer is "email address"?
MsgResources.XYXZTransferredIn - If that could spell "20 files (63211233 bytes) transferred in", would I expect it to be followed by a time value?
MsgResources.XHasInvitedYouToJoinRemoteSupportSession - This is not good. "a Session = en session" is of reale gender in Swedish, while "a Meeting = ett möte" is of neutrum gender. That requires different translations of "a". Is it possible for you to separate Support Session and Meeting into two resource entries (without using {1})?
And some new questions:
UIResources.lblPrefix - What is this? I found it when adding a contact. It is a label in front of an empty combo dropdown.
UIResources.lblExpiringNotification - What is this?
UIResources.lblTragetHostedService - Is "Target" a verb? What is the context of this phrase?
UIResources.chkUsePageant - What is the context of this phrase?

Prefix: it's also called salutation I think:
lblPrefix: M. Dr, Mme...
lblTragetHostedService: It's should be target hosted service and it's used by Amazon when you upload a certificate
lblExpiringNotification: this is the label used in File-Options to determine how many days are used to detect an "Expiring notification"
chkUsePageant: Pageant is a Putty sub-application
David Hervieux
Thanks again!
But I'll repost those questions still in need of answer:
MsgResources.TheDataSourceEmailIsRequired - So the answer is "email address"?
MsgResources.XYXZTransferredIn - Would I be correct to expect it to be followed by a time value?
MsgResources.XHasInvitedYouToJoinRemoteSupportSession - Is it possible for you to separate Support Session and Meeting into two resource entries (without using {1})?
UIResources.lblPrefix - I suspected that. But as I wrote, there are no Mr or Mrs to choose. The selection list is empty in the UI. But perhaps that is a good thing, since salutations and use of second person pluralis as form of address was formally abolished in the 1960'ies in Sweden?
UIResources.lblTragetHostedService - I'm sorry, but You didn't fully answer my question. Is "Target" a verb (imperative)? If it is not, then "Target Hosted Service" makes no sence at all, which makes it hard to translate.

MsgResources.TheDataSourceEmailIsRequired: Yes it is
XYXZTransferredIn: Yes it is
XHasInvitedYouToJoinRemoteSupportSession: I did that earlier and you will see the new translations tomorrow
lblTragetHostedService: It's a label and target is an adjective. Right next to the label, you have the list of all the hosted service that you can choose
David Hervieux
UIResources.butForward_ToolTip
Where is this used? Is it "Go forward" or "Forward message" or just direction?
UIResources.tpSocial
Where is this used? What does it refer to? Social life/communities? Socal security/identification number?

tpSocial is used categorize some web templates, so it's more related to the social media
butForward is used in the embedded web browser to Move forward in the navigation when you use the arrows.
David Hervieux
Thank you!
With that, I have now reached 100%. What is left to do is:
Systematically navigate through all the product parts to check for correct translation and spelling (and check that long texts fit).
Continuously translate new and changed phrases.
But I believe that the language is ready fo publish anyway.
