Description André Klapper 2006-02-03 02:25:23 UTC
#: ../calendar/gui/dialogs/recurrence-page.glade.h:8
msgid "for"

for what? for somebody, or for an amount of time (i know it's the latter)?

very hard to translate, please add comments and an example for usage within the entire sentence to
<property name="label" translatable="yes">for</property>
<property name="label" translatable="yes">until</property>
<property name="label" translatable="yes">forever</property>
Comment 1 André Klapper 2006-02-05 21:15:05 UTC
...by adding
        comments="bla"
attribute to the <property> tag.

half of evolution/calendar/gui/dialogs/recurrence-page.glade needs comments. :-(
you cannot translate "every" seperated if you do not know the sentence it is used in!
Comment 3 André Klapper 2006-02-12 04:46:22 UTC
well, added translator comments:
http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/evolution/calendar/gui/dialogs/recurrence-page.c?r1=1.75&r2=1.76
http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/evolution/calendar/gui/dialogs/recurrence-page.glade?r1=1.14&r2=1.15

i'm closing this as fixed, though i'm not happy the UI. not happy at all. :-(
