Alright I prepared this file for the translation Now, the syntax of the file, you told me you are not familiar with the way .po files work so let me give you an explanation. Every string inside the project is represented by a The translated string goes inside msgstr, for example in spanish that would be Please note that '{}' is kept in the string as that is used by the code to add something to the string for example in that case {} would be replaced by the name of the chat. Now, you will probably notice that there's hundreds of strings, I don't expect you to manually translate each one so here's the deal. From line 19 all the way to line 1119, it's just release notes and metadata for Flathub You can translate them using Google Translate or an AI model. Just make sure that everything makes sense. The rest of the file are actual strings that are used on the interface of Alpaca. If you have any questions feel free to ask and I will answer them tomorrow (it's 2 am in my country so I'm going to sleep lol) |

Hi, thanks for your time, I prepared this file I will give you a quick explanation of po files Every string inside the project is represented by a msgid you will see a lot of strings in your file for example The translated string goes inside msgstr, for example in spanish that would be Please note that '{}' is kept in the string as that is used by the code to add something to the string for example in that case {} would be replaced by the name of the chat. There are a lot of strings inside this file, it contains metadata for Flathub, release notes and of course the interface of the app itself, I don't expect you to translate all the strings manually, so here's the deal From line 19 to 1119 it's just metadata and release notes and from line 1312 to 1876 it's just models descriptions, you can translate those lines using AI, Google Translate etc etc since they can be literally translated with no adaptation. Just make sure everything makes sense and take all the time you need. Also please be aware that I will be crediting you as 'YusaBecerikli' if you want me to use a different name please tell me before making the pull request of all the translations. |

Alright, this is your file I need you to add your name and email (optional) to lines 4 and 12. Translations files include strings for the package metadata (all information shown in Flathub), AI model descriptions and of course the interface itself. Most of the strings are just metadata and descriptions, these don't need any context to be translated so you can use a translator or AI for them From line 19 to 1119 it's metadata The rest are interface strings so please translate them manually or just make sure they all make sense. I've been told that some people use GTranslator to edit the file but I haven't test it myself. If you want to edit the file manually this is an example in spanish: Notice how I kept the '{}', this is used to replace text on a string, in that case that would be the name of a model, so in the interface it would be something like " Remover 'Alpaca' " Once you make the pull request I will credit you on the repo and the app itself with your name on Github, if you want me to use a different name please tell me, if you have any questions feel free to tell me, thanks for your help! |

Hi thanks for your interest, I've prepared this file for the polish translation. Some people like to use GTranslator to fill the file, in case you want to do it manually this is a round out of how it works Every string inside the project is represented by a msgid you will see a lot of strings in your file for example The translated string goes inside msgstr, for example in spanish that would be Please note that '{}' is kept in the string as that is used by the code to add something to the string for example in that case {} would be replaced by the name of the chat. The file contains strings for the metadata used in storefronts (Flathub), the descriptions of the available models and of course the interface of Alpaca. Now, there are a lot of lines dedicated to the descriptions and metadata, those lines don't require any context to be translated, in those cases you can use a translator or AI to make your life easier, these are the lines: 19 to 1303: Metadata and release notes Everything else is the interface itself. Thanks for your offer to translate the app, if you have any questions feel free to ask them in this thread, once you are finished please make a pull request with the file. Also, please be aware that I will credit you using your public name on GitHub on this discussion, the repository's README file and the app itself, if you want me to use a different name please tell me before making the pull request, thanks |

Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

Hi thanks, I prepared a Vietnamese file for you. I'll need you to fill lines 4 and 12, the email thing is optional, just fill it with your name. You can use GTranslator to help you manipulate the file. If you want to manipulate the file directly this is a quick explanation of how it works: Each translatable line on the Flathub Metadata and the app it self is represented like this: #: src/window.ui:93
msgid "Loading Instance"
msgstr ""There you can see where the line is used and what the line is, your translation must go inside the quotes in msgstr. So something like this: #: src/window.ui:93
msgid "Loading Instance"
msgstr "Cargando Instancia"There are some lines that are bigger, notice how you don't just move to the next line in the file but also open new quotes for it #: src/window.ui:150
msgid ""
"Warning: Power saver mode is enabled, this will slow down message generation"
msgstr ""
"Advertencia: el modo de ahorro de energía está habilitado, esto ralentizará "
"la generación de mensajes."And finally, there are some lines that have quotes inside of them, in those cases the quote is #: src/window.ui:331
msgid ""
"The default model to use on new chats and when Alpaca is launched with the "
"option --ask \"message\""
msgstr ""
"El modelo por defecto a usar en chats nuevos y cuando Alpaca es lanzado con "
"la opción --ask \"mensaje\""Now either way you want to do it, please make sure that the translations are good, you can use AI or a translator program for the patch notes and model descriptions but please make sure to write some good translations for the UI and Flathub metadata. There's no rush to get this done for a certain date or version, you can take your time and work on this when you can. Once you are finished just open a new pull request, I will check for anything out of place and then I will add it officially to Alpaca and credit you on the about dialog in the app itself and the repo's README. Thanks again! |

I see, thanks for telling me, terminal fonts are only used if the bot outputs code, I think most of the time that would be in english so I don't think it would be a problem.

Hi, I'm currently around 15% done with the translation. It was difficult to simultaneously do the translation since I have another internship program currently progressing. I am currently in wanting of advice from you, just to check if 15% in 2 weeks is slow or not. I also just wanted to tell you I'm still working on it, and didn't abandon it lol. Thank you! |
