Hi all
Whatever would be the language in which you translate,try to keep the
indication of the way you make the "download" action.
Translations of 3GPP for mobiles phones are good:-> you download from the
server to the equipment.
-> you upload from the equipment to the server.
You will then find the correct term to use
when translating the generic term 'load'.
Thanks.

Objet : [Mediawiki-i18n] The translation of the word "download" in Hokkien
(ISO code: nan)
To everyone in Mediawiki i18n group:
I've found that the translation of download of Mediawiki in Hokkien (Min Nan)
is transcribed from English phonetically as "táuⁿ-ló͘" (see the
link:https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ASearchTranslations&query=+t%C3%A1u%E2%81%BF-l%C3%B3%CD%98&language=).
However, few people use that word. Many people in Taiwan speak it as
"táng-ló͘" or use the calque "hā-chài" (下載) (ref.
https://itaigi.tw/k/%E4%B8%8B%E8%BC%89). Therefore, I suggested that the word
"táuⁿ-ló͘" should be replaced with "táng-ló͘" or "hā-chài".
