This is meaningless. You are missing the point of translation.

During the translation, one might stumble upon words with no previous
translation, in which case there are two options: invent a new word
or do a 1:1 translation.

I'd like to see the first happen, with proper discussion in the
lists. Please don't translate terms you are not familiar with. Please
don't use ANY words from the Hebrew academy. They suck.

In other words: how do you translate "TCP/IP stack"? how do you
translate "stack frame"? how do you translate "stack size"? how
do you translate "data size"?

Obviously, all of KDE. If you have the money, the Gnome too.
