E-commerce becomes more and more popular in these days, it even changes the ways of people and company conduct business.

Translation Overview

The project has 20,934 words with 20,934 words translatable as shown in below figure, it has 4,325 duplicate words in this project.

---

As shown in above figure, the translation project has 25 target languages, I work on simplified Chinese translation. The translation of this project is a little complicated because there were some simple parts that had been translated by different translators before, and there are few long paragraphs in this project, most of the items are short phases and sentences. Moreover, it has many embedded codes inside the untranslated items which makes the translation is not very trivial, especially for Chinese language since it has totally different characters compare to English alphabet.

This is my fifth contribution for OroCommerce translation project, there are 57% words before my contribution reported in this post as shown in below figure.

---

After my work reported in this post, the percentage increases to 62% as indicated in below figure. It illustrates that I contributed 5% in part 4, about 1000 words. The more detailed number will reported in the Word count section.

Word count details

This is my 5th translation work for this project, I contributed 1,019 words within last 24 hours which is indicated in below top member report.

---

For helping language moderator more conveniently inspect the number of words I contributed, I report the number of translated words before and after for the file I worked on as shown in below two subplots.

The first file I worked on reported in this post is messages.en.yml under OroFrontendBundle/translations/ folder.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal number of words I contributed is 935 - 444 = 388 = 491.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38 + 3.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38 + 3 + 38.

The below figure is the screen shot after my translation, I miss the screenshot before my translation of file validators.en.yml, but the above screenshot validates such file without translation before I translated it.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38 + 3 + 38 + 10.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38 + 3 + 38 + 10 + 380.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38 + 3 + 38 + 10 + 380 + 29.

---

As shown in above before and after screenshots, the subtotal = 491 + 38 + 3 + 38 + 10 + 380 + 29 + 14 = 1,003.

Besides the translation reported in above before and after screenshots, I translated several repeated words as shown in below activity report, e.g., 'websites' to “网站”.

Therefore, the total number of my translated words is 1,019.

Comments

As I reported in the translation overview section, there are many embedded codes inside the untranslated items which makes the translation is not easy. In this work, I met several long paragraph fully filled with these codes as shown in below figure. In order to make my translation is readable and understandable, I modified the order of some words and break the whole original sentence into several segments.

---

There is one open issue is about the items 'success-dark' and 'error-dark', it is very difficult to capture the accurate meaning of these two items without knowing the context. I leave the comment for them to the owner of the project. I will add their translation after knowing the context or following the suggestion from my language moderator.
