Hello *,

I am a big fan of changing this also in the English original strings.
There are a lot of inconsistencies like such.

But good to know we can do it in our translations anyway.
Wasn't aware of it yet.

For information, there is a guide explaining the tags here:

the original?

Yeah, it’s OK; just ensure that the syntax is valid.

I do this all the time, a string like:

Choose File - Properties -
Security tab

I would render it into Spanish as:

Vaya a Archivo ▸ Propiedades ▸
pestaña Seguridad

Hope this helps.

[libreoffice-l10n] Adding extra tags to the translation of Help

2018-01-29 Thread Modestas Rimkus
Hi,

lacking technical knowledge, I'd like to double check if adding extra tags
 in the translation of Help would not break anything. When I
do so, Pootle complains about critical XML tags errors. Is it safe to mute
them?

My goal is to unify the appearance of shortcut keys, menu commands, etc. in
the translated text. In the original text, only some of them are emphasized
using the tags, while in the translation according to my language
recommendations I have to either use quotes or emphasize names of commands
and keys in a different way (e.g. bold).

So is this ok if translated string contains more pairs of  tags than
the original?

Regards,
Modestas
