2.Project Details
- Project name: The FreeCAD
One of my translation projects is FreeCAD. I did pick up this project because I would like to challenge myself in a totally different area.
FreeCAD is created as a software which provides the users a tool to design and draw the engineering drawing in both 2D and 3D detailedly and correctly.
FreeCAD is an open-source parametric 3D modeler made primarily to design real-life objects of any size. Parametric modeling allows you to easily modify your design by going back into your model history and changing its parameters.
For more information about FreeCAD, you can find out via: FreeCAD website; FreeCAD wiki
- Translation's Reasons:
I am working in the procurement department of a state-owned company. In addition to prepare the minutes of the meeting and other documents for the meeting, my main task is to prepare and monitor the contracts. One type of the contracts is the technical contract. I am deeply aware of the importance of CAD software and similar CAD software in the working section.
CAD software is now popular in Vietnam, but 3D design is not the strength of CAD. The engineers prefer the software that is low memory usage, easy to use and has many functions.
Recognizing that FreeCAD has many criteria to meet the needs of the engineers and with the desire to access CAD-like software, I have chosen to translate FreeCAD into Vietnamese to give the community appropriate document.
Especially, FreeCAD's library is mainly related to Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering which are also the main part of our company's projects.
3.Contribution Specifications
3.1. Translation Overview
This is my first translation of FreeCAD project. My working section is mainly on Draft.ts file.
Thanks to my co-workers who did give me lots of supports when I processed the translation, my final work is better understood in Vietnamese. Through their working experience, they could help me with the strange terms and show me the real illustration for reference.
Moreover, my team's partner in the Vietnamese team also gave me a hand when spotting the term "$Dim" out. As a result of it, all of us can figure out the right words to convert that term's meaning into Vietnamese.
String source: Displays a dim symbol at the end of the wire
The problem: At first, I translate "Dim" into the meaning that is similar to "blur". Then, @lecongdoo3 found out that "Dim" was written for short for Dimension.
The solution: I had asked my co-worker about that term in CAD Software, he is an experienced engineer and he showed me the visual image of that term in CAD. Besides, he suggested to me the usage of that term in Vietnamese.
The result: Hiển thị biểu tượng kích thước của đường kích thước ở phần cuối của dây dẫn
