German and French translation needed

Hey there, I'm in need of some strings translated to French. Anyone that would care to help out ? :)
As you see by the last string, I will credit the person that does the translating in my addon menu :)

EDIT: German translation done! Points goes to Ace for effort :), and thank you so much Tonyleila for looking over to get it proper :D

French

Code:

["fr"] = {

        Addon                = "Reticle Tweaks",

        titlePicker = {

                Header        = "Fixed Title Color",

                Body        = "The title is this color when you interact with a container (e.g a empty or unopened chest)"

        },

        alsoRecolorTitle = {

                Header        = "Dynamic Title Color",

                Body        = "Enabling this will recolor the title the same as the interactable and disable the Fixed Title Color."

        },

        interactablePicker = {

                Header        = "Interactable Color",

                Body        = "The text is this color when you interact with something that is interactable (e.g a unopened chest)"

        },

        notInteractablePicker = {

                Header        = "Not Interactable Color",

                Body        = "The text is this color when you interact with something that is not interactable (e.g a empty chest)"

        },

        resetColors = {

                Header        = "Reset Colors",

                Body        = "Resets the colors back to default."

        },

        Warning        = "This will reload the UI.",

        Credits        = "Translated by"

}

Ace	04/29/14 03:08 PM

Code:

["de"] = {

        titlePicker = {

                Header        = "Fixe Titel Farbe",

                Body        = "Der Titel ist in dieser Farbe, wenn ihr mit einem Behälter interagiert (z.B. eine leere oder ungeöffnete Kiste)"

        },

        alsoRecolorTitle = {

                Header        = "Dynamische Titel Farbe",

                Body        = "Diese Option aktiviert die Umfärbung des Titels zu der des interagierbarem Objektes und deaktiviert die Fixe Titel Farbe"

        },

        interactablePicker = {

                Header        = "Interagierbare Farbe",

                Body        = "Der Text hat diese Farbe wenn ihr mit etwas interagierbarem interagiert (z.B. eine ungeöffnete Kiste)"

        },

        notInteractablePicker = {

                Header        = "Nicht interagierbare Farbe",

                Body        = "Der Text hat diese Farbe, wenn ihr mit etwas nicht interagierbarem interagiert (z.B. eine leere Kiste)"

        },

        resetColors = {

                Header        = "Farbreset",

                Body        = "Setzt die Farbe auf die standard Werte zurück."

        },

        Warning        = "Diese Aktion läd der UI neu.",

        Credits        = "Übersetzt von Ace"

I would write "Titelfarbe" as one word, that's more correct.
It's also "lädt", not "läd" and the article should not be "der", either "die" or "das" (I would recommend "das").

Also "standard Werte" should be "Standardwerte" and in the same sentence use the plural, so not "Farbe" but "Farben". :D

Just my 2 cents.

        },

        alsoRecolorTitle = {

                Header        = "Dynamische Titelfarbe",

                Body        = "Deaktiviert die Individuelle Titel Farbe und färbt sie entsprechend der eingestellten Farben bei 'benutzbaren' und 'nicht benutzbaren' Objekten."

        },

        interactablePicker = {

                Header        = "Benutzbar Farbe",

                Body        = "Der Text hat diese Farbe, wenn ihr etwas öffnen oder looten könnt. (z.B. eine ungeöffnete Kiste)"

        },

        notInteractablePicker = {

                Header        = "Nicht benutzbar Farbe",

                Body        = "Der Text hat diese Farbe, wenn ihr etwas anvisiert, dass nicht benutzbar ist. (z.B. eine leere Kiste)"

        },

        resetColors = {

                Header        = "Farben zurücksetzen",

                Body        = "Setzt die Farben auf die Standardwerte zurück."

        },

        Warning        = "Aktivieren lädt das Interface neu.",

The effort was great of cause! And it was also quite good but its a very difficult text to translate so you can't just take the 1 to 1 translation. Always love to see ppl learn German :)

I use the this great addon too and a German translation is the least i could do to say thank you!

I appreciate it a lot! nice to get it right before releasing it :)

Biki	04/30/14 03:03 AM

Typo in the first sentence "Der Titel hat dieser Farbe," should be "Der Titel hat diese Farbe,", otherwise it's great ;)

I guess yes everyone playing mmos shoud know what it is. You can translate it with "plündern" but that sounds silly :D
I also asked in my german Guild ingame they agree :)

Also: Raiden, aggro, twink, main, kiten, afk, omw, casten, buffen, CC, CD, dispellen, dotten, droppen, reggen, reppen, respawnen, rezzen, sheepen, vanishen, wipen...

Yes there are many "Denglish" words in mmos

The UI crosshair displays "durchsuchen".

I suppose I can even find people who say that a German translation is a waste of time and English is fine. :)

True, but it's supposed to be a German translation, not a Denglish translation.

For me the German translation one many addons helps a lot.
Its not a "Denglish" translation we have many english loanwords in our dictionary like "S.hitstorm" "Parkour"...

The UI also displays "Lebe wohl!" (=live long) when you interact with dead questgivers. Not a good point to argue with :D

Well, it is funny how you don't mind to correct other people but have a problem accepting errors in your translation and try to argue them away. "looten" is not a German word. Simple as that. You can't change facts with arguments.

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loot_%28Computerspiel%29

So if you say "looten" is not a german word then "loot" is not a german word too. But how woud you say "Lootsystem"? "Beuteverteilungsystem" noooo please not
You coud say "Beute" for "loot" but it also means "prey" in german so...

This is a Game and not degree dissertation!
Lets stop this discussion here, if you want to translate an addon and make it better then go ahead. There are many that still need translations! Please!

"Mundus" is an insider word.
"Leeerooy" is an insider word.
"Mankriks wife" is an insider term.

"Looten" is just the excuse for lazy people who are so used to English words that they consider German words silly.

You are right. "Loot" is not a German word either. It obviously is an English word. "F u c k" is an English term also and it doesn't turn into a German word just because 99% of German MMO players will understand it - therefore "F u c k" doesn't belong into a German translation.

I'm going ahead right now by making this one better :)

But you are right. We can stop the discussion, you have started.

I've said what I had to say. "looten" is wrong, it needs to be "durchsuchen". This is German and it is used by the UI itself for that particular moment where your reticle is over a chest with content, so when using that term people easily recognize what color you are talking about because that term actually appears in the UI.

So, this information is well-known by now, what people do with it is their choice.

End of discussion.
