Description Graciano Torrão 2009-11-26 23:15:55 UTC 
HI,

I've been using Debian/GNU Linux since Etch was released.

I'm using the Portuguese :
# locale -a
C
POSIX
pt_PT.utf8

Alwais noticed, but never took the time to report, that when connecting successefully to a "wired network", i allways get the message saying that i successefully connected to a "wireless network" (all of this in Portuguese).

Hope this is correct.

Bye

Is this a correct or incorrect translation?


msgid "You are now connected to the wired network."
msgstr "Encontra-se agora ligado à rede com fios."

that's what currently exists.  If it's not correct, can you suggest a better one?  Thanks!

That translation is correct.

"wireless" means "sem fios"
"wired" means "com fios"

When connecting to a wired network i get
"Encontra-se agora ligado a uma rede sem fios."
I showl get the message
"Encontra-se agora ligado a uma rede com fios."

Hope i make myself clear!?


Thanks

this appears to have gotten fixed when we switched the messages from "wired"/"wireless" to "Ethernet"/"Wi-Fi"
