Legend of Wesmere 1.11.15 file wesnoth-low.po

Post by Pepe »

I am translating this file and i have this at lines 314,315:

msgid "$left_behind_{NAME} and $l3_store_{NAME}[$i].name"
msgstr "$left_behind_{NAME} y $l3_store_{NAME}[$i].name"

and this at lines 325, 330

msgid ""
"Before Kalenz left the Ka’lian he had ordered $left_behind_kalenz to stay "
"and guard it."
msgstr ""
"Antes de dejar el Ka’lian, Kalenz ordenó a $left_behind_kalenz quedarse "
"atrás y defenderlo."

When i test translation "in game" i see the word "and" at thanslated text. It looks like if line 315 (with thanslation) is not used in variable and it is used line 314 text in english.

The bug here is that macros break translatable strings. That is, the string that is translated is not the same one that the engine eventually encounters.

In your case, that means the untranslated version is eventually interpolated in the second string. It seems to have never worked:

Will it be fixed by witting lines 325-330 like this?

msgid ""
"Before Kalenz left the Ka’lian he had ordered $left_behind_{NAME} and $l3_store_{NAME}[$i].name to stay "
"and guard it."
msgstr ""
"Antes de dejar el Ka’lian, Kalenz ordenó a $left_behind_{NAME} y $l3_store_{NAME}[$i].name quedarse "
"atrás y defenderlo."

Or those variables have lost their previous values?

Sorry but i cant red WML: I' m just a translator.

Thanks for help

Right now, you can't fix it in the translation; the actual strings are broken and need to be fixed. Just leave it untranslated for now.
