Translation in indonesian languange

Dear all

i’m brili , indonesian… great to see you all
english is not my mother language … so be gentle to me :).

i want to make some contribution translation to my mother language (indonesian) but it is not exist yet on https://i18n.haiku-os.org/pootle/
anyone can give hint for guide ?

thanks for your attention.

Hi,

You need to subscribe to the haiku-i18n mailing list and request help there.
The process is documented in the wiki:
https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/i18n

And I found there already is a mailing list and coordination page for indonesian:
https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/i18n/id_ID/Info

About 2 years ago Dityo Nurasto @nurasto showed interest in the Indonesian localization. It seems like he worked on the Indonesian i18n wiki, but things have fizzled out…
I found an old mail where @nielx mentioned trying to resurrect a previous effort on an Indonesian localization. But nothing more. Maybe both parties waited on the eachother, hence the fizzle…

I’d say, post on the i18n and i18n-id mailing lists and try to reach out to Dityo. If he’s still around and interested, you’ll have to figure out who’s gonna be Language Manager or if you’ll both do it (which may be sensible if you’re the only two working on it).
I’ll be adding “id - Indonesian” to the pootle site and try to make you interim Language Manger.

thank you PulkoMandy… i’ll recheck again link you provided…

thank you humdinger for your attention…
yes i have been join i18n-id and thereis no post there . .last date is around 2010… right now i’m try to find traces about this guy… i see his web page… but its last post around january 2016…

thank you for adding Id-indonesian to pootle site…

best regards

You can start the work at pootle, I think. Don’t worry if you can’t reach Dityo, it’s just polite to make the effort (and of course to potentially gain a collegue to work together on it). :slight_smile:

i’m sorry humdinger… i’m still not see indonesian list here https://i18n.haiku-os.org/pootle/projects/haiku/
to start translating… CMIIW

best regards

I am still here :slight_smile:

Thank you @humdinger for adding Indonesian to pootle site.

@mazbrili it’s seems the system copy origin language to Indonesian pootle. I still monitor i18n an i18n-id mailing list also.

If you want to start the translation process to GUI right away, please do so. :slight_smile:

Thank you for your interest to Indonesian translation.

Hey @nurasto! Cool you’re still around! :smile:
I added you as another Language Manager. If you two come to the conclusion, that there should be only one, let me know and I strip one of you of your rank. :slight_smile:
Maybe use the i18n-id mailing list to discuss things like the “Terminology” guide that’s kept at your i18n-id wiki.

It took the system some time to actually show the “Indonesian” catalogs, but now everything’s ready…

Whoa… i’m so surprised you show here …

i’ll translate as my best… and i still hope you review… because my translation maybe not good enough.
i want to talk indonesian with you… but off course not here… because it will bugging other else…
:smiley:

@humdinger pootle web translation can be use now by me… thank you. i’ll start translating…

Hey @humdinger!
Sure. I will discuss with @mazbrili about language manager and get back to you.

@mazbrili just subscribe to i18n-id mailing list and post an email to acknowledge me. We will discuss a lot more there. :slight_smile:

@nurasto i’ve been send to mail to http://www.freelists.org/list/haiku-i18n-id, we will start discus there…
thank you everyone :smile:

Hi I am European but speak Indonesian as well… please add bahasa Malayisia as well…

Disini cuma forum… tidak apa apa…anda mencoba translati sahaja… kalau ada dapat masalah macam" saya bisa menolong…

…my malaysian languange is not good… i’m afraid doing wrong when translating it…

glad to see other indonesian speakers here…
