There are mainly 2 places where I would suggest edits due to potential mistakes (the places I tagged you in).
Otherwise I've suggested some shorter alternatives.
Also, why are there a lot of similar commands? For example:
#: src/input/command.zig:636
msgid "Close All Windows"
msgstr "Lukk alle vinduer"
#: src/input/command.zig:637
msgid "Close all windows."
msgstr "Lukk alle vinduer."
EDIT: If it is due to Gnome HIG, perhaps use capital letters in Norwegian As Well.?
@jakeriksen FYI this exclusively applies to English, all the other languages do sentence case rather than title case. |
Ok, nice to know, thanks @trag1c |
There's a couple big reasons; that one's a title vs a description: Lines 634 to 638 in 710b872 The line and file the string is found in is always present above it, and even if you don't know how to code or anything about GTK you can usually guess where it goes. Or you could look for it in the UI (but finding it may be a bit hard: that one isn't implemented on GTK yet, so it's not actually in the UI, for example). Here's another example: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/blob/47c71d062a7611791e305ae178760d754d84acfe/po/nb.po#L835-L837 https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/blob/47c71d062a7611791e305ae178760d754d84acfe/po/nb.po#L369-L371 The first's in the command palette: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/blob/47c71d062a7611791e305ae178760d754d84acfe/src/input/command.zig#L456-L460 While the second one's in the popup that appears when you press the one in the command palette: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/blob/47c71d062a7611791e305ae178760d754d84acfe/src/apprt/gtk/class/title_dialog.zig#L225-L231
As for the capital letters, Does Norwegian Use Title Case in Titles? If it does, then yes; don't do it simply to copy the English source. |

Got it, thanks @00-kat. Didn't trace it to the usage, just focused on the language.
Norwegian doesn't use Title Case, only sentence case, as @trag1c confirmed. @Uzaaft should have enough feedback now for finishing this up. |

Also, @jakeriksen: would you like to join the |

Yeah, sure, I can help out there @00-kat |
