Description Dušan 2015-03-12 11:15:00 UTC 
I want to ask, where can be translated descriptions of characters.

Example: "Upwards arrow", "Exclamation mark", "Smiling face with open mouth", etc etc.


Thanks!

Sorry, I don't know how to deal with that.  Ideally it should be done in Unicode itself, but I don't know of any effort except:
http://www.unicode.org/notes/tn24/
Also, even if there were, it would increase the package size significantly (and also the workloads of translators).

Well, just doing gettext (description) doesn't cost you much - of course, you'll have to figure out some way to get all the descriptions injected in the pot file.

You could also set up a separate translation domain for this, like we do in GTK+ for property blurbs.
