Ambigious description of the Translation issue #419
Comments
@harshit-maheshwari thanks for your help in the project it is very heartwarming. I can see your concerts and I think it could help the project to have such a translation guiding file. We are trying to make contributing and translations to the project as easy as it can be, so we are ok with wrong (hopefully not insulting) translations as we know that some users of the app will fix that when needed. A guiding file will surely help to reduce wrong translations but it will be much more work for developers that add a translation. In conclusion A guiding file is needed, and pr for that is welcome. |

Similar is with word "scene".
This will totally be misguiding for the end-user as "Blinds" in the project is reffering to the "Curtain like covering of windows used for shade "
Unawareness of the context of the words can create blunders and can misguide end-user.
There is a need to attach an extra file containing information such as:

I have shared a solution as a PR for that particular file but this issue can be seen in other languages too and it is needed to be corrected.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
