Project details

Project name: ReactOS

Crowdin link: https://crowdin.com/project/reactos

GitHub link: https://github.com/reactos/reactos

Description:

ReactOS is a Free/Community/Opensource/Collaborative/Compatible operating system.

Translation's reason

ReactOS is a free operating system available for the community and it is based on the concept of open source.
It is a system that we could also define with two key words: collaborative and compatible.
Imagine if anybody could be able to run windows applications and drivers in an open source environment of a great reliability: with ReactOS this is possible, so, it is clear how this service can be very important for the community. In addition, another fundamental thing is that this operating system is completely free and the execution and the installation are very intuitive. The potentialities are various and they are sufficient to be considered valid reasons for translating this project.

Contribution Specifications

My job is to translate computer strings in the Italian language, where it is possible.
I would like to underline that some words will not be translated as they need to be kept in English.
All the special characters, numbers and codes that must remain like the originals one, will be removed from the word count.

Translation Overview

In these 1058 words I have dealt with various computer strings, useful and fundamental for the development of the project.
Because of other translators had started translating this project some time ago, I went through every single folder, again, to complete the translations of the missing strings.

Indeed, I finished translating the names of other countries of the world. In this part of the projects there are a lot of strings related to the phonebook, telephone numbers, fixed IP, DNS and WINS addresses and the Dial-Up connection. With this last translation I have reached 75% of the translation of this project. Translating it I have acquired more and more knowledge about the computer strings, spending always the necessary time to understand their context and to do my work always in the best way possible.

Here you can find some of the strings that I had to translate:

About the phonebook...

The phonebook is empty.\n\nPress OK to add an entry.\0
Delete %1 from the phonebook?\0
A personal phonebook has been created and initialized with the contents of the system phonebook.\0
No alternate phonebook is selected.\0

About the Dial-Up...

Dial-up Connection\0
Choose Dial-up Protocol\0
Right-click the Dial-Up Networking Monitor on the task bar to hang up or check the status of your connection.\0
You can choose which dial-up protocol to use.\0

Languages

The original strings are written in English and I translated them into Italian. I have been selected by the DaVinci team as a translator thanks to my knowledge of the English language gained during my 3 years of stay in London. You can read my application post HERE
