Explanations

Weblate loads and saves explanation from TBX files to be displayed in Fjalorth.

  • Translation explanation is stored as <note from="translator"></note> tag.

  • Source string explanation is stored as <descrip></descrip> tag.

  • Source string description is stored as <descrip type="Usage note"></descrip> tag.

Glossary flags and read-only metadata

Weblate imports terms with forbidden or obsolete administrative status in <termNote type="administrativeStatus"> as Forbidden translations.

Terms with <descrip type="Translation needed">No</descrip> are imported as read-only strings, see Untranslatable terms.

Importing glossary files

TBX can store multiple languages in one XML file, but Weblate still maps each component file to a translation language using the component file mask. For a TBX glossary component, the component source language is used for source terms and the language parsed from the file name is used as the target glossary language.

Avoid naming a TBX translation file with the same language code as the component source language, because the source language already exists in Weblate and the file can be detected as a duplicate language.
