Hi Joshua,

thanks! I'm looking forward to your first merge request on gitlab :)

Hope you'll catch someone to support you with the Swedish a bit, and let us know when you have any questions (best in the chat channel).

Hi Maren

Sorry for the late reply,

Thanks for the providing me with a starting point, I will start translating straight away . There isn’t anyone that I know off who can help me with the translation but I will try to contact one of the pervious translators.

I am a little familiar with GitHub.

Thanks

Joshua

great - the Swedish translation for the program hasn't seen any updates for over a year, and seems to be in a generally neglected state - so I think this would be the best place to start.

The current status for Inkscape master (soon Inkscape 1.0) for Swedish is:

35% (3019/8500) translated 44% (3787) fuzzy 21% (1785) not translated 38% (14498/37719) of words translated

So there's a lot to do! Is there anyone else in your class or course who would be able/like to help you? If there isn't anyone, you could also try to contact one of the previous translators of the file, to get some feedback - the non-Swedish speakers here can help with logistics and with Inkscape, but not with Swedish. It's always good to have someone else to talk things over with.

The po file is available at

https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/master/po

The Wiki link (http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Translation_information) lists some suitable translation software.

Are you familiar with git / gitlab already?

(I'm sending this to the translators' list, please make sure you reply to it, too.)

For quick help with terms in Inkscape, you can also contact us in the chat at https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_translation .

Kind Regards,  Maren

Hi maren

I will be translating to Swedish.

Is there a particular order you would like me to translate the files from English to Swedish or should I just do what I can .

Thanks

Joshua

welcome! That's a good idea with the translations :)

Can you let us know which language you would be translating to (from English)?

The links Milo gave in the chat will be helpful for getting an overview about where your help will be most useful.
