Andreas or Dave may be interested in changing some English messages
IMHO the terms describe exactly what's meant. We'll try to explain if
this isn't clearly understood.
like
"Execute arbitrary queries"
Execute free-form queries
or "Try switching it to..."
Try changing it to
or even "explain analyse query" which are difficult to translated.
In doubt, don't translate. This is PostgreSQL slang.
(binary compatible)
Sorry, I understand the meaning but do not know where it comes from.
Used for casts, e.g. the cast varchar->text doesn't need a cast function
because the types are binary compatible (i.e. just different names for
the same data representation)
Commutator
This is part of CREATE OEPRATOR syntax. You may keep it in English.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-createoperator.html
Yeah
Cast (Casts)
= "conversion" from one type to another.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-createcast.html
Keep
Do instead
This is part of the create rule dialog.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/interactive/sql-createrule.html
Rules can "rewrite" SQL queries on the fly before they are executed. For
example, you can transform a "drop" query and run another query "instead". I
would propose to keep this in English as it is very close to the SQL.
Execute arbitrary SQL queries.
In the menu. I would translate by "Execute custom queries"
Explain analyse query
Explain verbose query
PostgreSQL allows you to analyse your queries in order to optimise them. This
analyse corresponds to the "EXPLAIN ANALYSE" and "EXPLAIN VERBOSE" SQL
queries. This text is displayed in the menu and means "Run EXPLAIN ANAYLYSE
on query" and "Run EXPLAIN VERBOSE on query".
For each
Part of CREATE TRIGGER ... for each. Keep in English.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-createtrigger.html
For type
Don't know where it comes from.
operatorclass "This is the opclass for type ..."
Handler
PostgreSQL has several server-side languages (plpgSQL, plPerl, plPHP, etc...).
Each language is managed by a handler. Keep 'handler" in English as it is
also part of the SQL syntax: CREATE LANGUAGE.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-createlanguage.html
Has OIDs
A table in PostgreSQL can have OIDs ("internal" identifiers) or not. Keep OIDs
in English.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-createtable.html
Kind
Don't know yet.
Used as synonym for "type", since type is a PostgreSQL object term.
Left / Right type / table
This is a query builder message. The query builder is buggy and cannot be run.
So I do not know exactly what this message stands for. Maybe you can draw
joins between two tables.
Options modifying Explain output
These options can print more or less information in EXPLAIN query.
Out of Memory for cacheLinePool
Internal message. Copy the source in target.
Supports hash?
Hash is kind of index.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-createindex.html
Try switching it to the lefthand side in one\n
or more relationships.
This is a query builder thing. "Try moving one or more relationships to the
left side (RTL!!!)". Don't know what it means.

Andreas
