Dear DictionaryForMIDs users,

DictionaryForMIDs displays menu items, dialogues, etc. (all this is called 'user interface texts') in the native language of the user - if the user interface translation is there for this language !

The user interface language is determined from the cell phone/PDA. So for example for a French cell phone/PDA, the menus and dialogues will be in French; for a Vietnamese cell phone/PDA the menus and dialogues will be in Vietnamese; and so on.

Of course the user interface language can be manually changed in the Settings dialogue.

All of this was introduced with version 3 of DictionaryForMIDs.

We right now have the following languages:

  • English
  • Việt Nam
  • Chinese
  • Dutch [who can update ?]
  • Français
  • Greek [who can update ?]
  • Deutsch
  • Italiano
  • Japanese
  • Russian [who can update ?]
  • Español [who can update ?]
  • Czech
  • Slovak

We need to have the translations for many more languages (plus updates for some of the above listed langauges) ! Who can support this ? Please see http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/needhelp.html#LanguageUITranslations for more information.

Quynh is co-ordinating the activities around the user interface translations. When you are able to provide an additional user interface translation, please also do a short posting in this forum (or send an email to Gert).

With best greetings,
Gert
