Fuskr needs internationalisation/localisation (i18n/l10n)

DanAtkinson opened this issue · comments

I did a cursory check on the costs for translating Fuskr into regional variants and they're ludicrous. Translating the extension into Spanish would cost several hundred pounds. I have a reasonable grasp of several languages to be able to do it myself with the aid of Google/Bing translators, but I'd like to do it properly.

So, I either don't value the work of translators enough, or they're charging exorbitant prices. In any case, it'd be nice to get Fuskr localised into the following languages (ordered by highest usage):

  1. Spanish
  2. French
  3. Japanese
  4. German
  5. Portuguese (Brazilian)
  6. Polish
  7. Russian
  8. Chinese
  9. Italian
  10. Hindustani
  11. Arabic

The order of the list above is based on the top non-English language hits for the Fuskr Chrome extension page.

Fuskr is currently i18n/l10n 'translated' for English (en-gb, en-us and en (generic)). The variants for all three are essentially the same at the moment.

Other languages are open to be submitted by other users if they so wish, but I'm otherwise not pursuing translation any further at the current time.
