[Files App] Translations wanted 💬

Dear folks, next Files app release (coming soon) includes multi-language interface. For this, I need help to correctly translate interface texts into other languages. I'm especially interested in translations for languages DE, ES, FR, IT, JA, KO, NL, PT, RU and ZH, but more than happy to accept translations for other languages also.

Option 1
1. Goto www.files.gallery/langeditor or download en.json translation file.
2. Make corrections to any language.
3. Copy-paste in reply to this post or send to me karl (at) photo.gallery.

You can find Google translated version below, in which case you may only need to make a few corrections:
de | es | fr | it | ja | ko | nl | pt | ru | th | zh

Sample file
Default en.json translation file looks like this, items listed in alphabetical order:
Code
{
"blocks": "blocks",
"columns": "columns",
"copy link": "copy link",
"copy text": "copy text",
"date": "date",
"delete": "delete",
"directory is empty": "directory is empty",
"download": "download",
"error": "error",
"fail": "fail",
"files": "files",
"filter": "filter",
"folders": "folders",
"google maps": "google maps",
"grid": "grid",
"imagelist": "imagelist",
"images": "images",
"kind": "kind",
"language": "language",
"layout": "layout",
"list": "list",
"loading": "loading",
"login": "login",
"logout": "logout",
"matches found for": "matches found for",
"name": "name",
"open in new tab": "open in new tab",
"rows": "rows",
"save": "save",
"show info": "show info",
"size": "size",
"sort": "sort",
"space": "space",
"uniform": "uniform",
"upload": "upload",
"zoom": "zoom"
}
  • "blocks" / Used in the layout dropdown menu to select "blocks" layout.
  • "columns" / Used in the layout dropdown menu to select "columns" layout.
  • "copy link" / Menu item "copy link" for a file or folder.
  • "copy text" / Button to "copy text" from text/code file loaded into the modal.
  • "date" / As in sort by date.
  • "delete" / Action to delete file or folder.
  • "directory is empty" / Displays when a directory is empty.
  • "download" / Action to download a file.
  • "error" / Displays when there is an error (normally loading error).
  • "fail" / Displays when some feature fails. Might translate into the same as "error".
  • "files" / As in "folder contains 100 files".
  • "filter" / Placeholder text for the filter/search input field in topbar.
  • "folders" / As in "15 folders • 9.83 MB".
  • "google maps" / Menu item linking to Google maps for an image with GPS coordinates.
  • "grid" / Used in the layout dropdown menu to select "grid" layout.
  • "imagelist" / Used in the layout dropdown menu to select "imagelist" layout. The imagelist is similar to the list, except that it will also display image thumbnails.
  • "images" / As in "folder contains 100 images".
  • "kind" / Type of file (extension). Used in the sort dropdown menu.
  • "language" / Header for the optional "language" dropdown menu.
  • "layout" / Header for the "layout" dropdown menu.
  • "list" / Used in the layout dropdown menu for the "list" layout.
  • "loading" / Text that emphasizes something is "loading".
  • "login" / Login
  • "logout" / Logout / log out
  • "matches found for" / Used when entering text in the filter/search input "15 [matches found for] searchphrase".
  • "name" / As in sort by name.
  • "open in new tab" / Action to open file or folder in a new tab. Can also be "open in new window", but I personally prefer "new tab".
  • "rows" / Used in the layout dropdown menu to select "rows" layout.
  • "save" / Action to save a file when updated.
  • "show info" / Action to show more info about a file or folder in modal view.
  • "size" / As in filesize, but preferably kept short as in sort by size.
  • "sort" / Header for the "sort" dropdown menu, to sort items by name, kind, size or date.
  • "space" / Used for some layouts in layout dropdown selector to specify "space" between items.
  • "uniform" / Used to specific a uniform or symmetric layout for some layouts in the layout dropdown selector.
  • "upload" / Action to upload files.
  • "zoom" / Action to zoom/view an image in the popup.
Notes
  • Capitalization is optional, but Files app will automatically Capitalize first letter via CSS, so please keep lowercase when possible.
  • You don't have to translate all items from English if literal translation is not intuitive. For example, when translating into Norwegian, I found that items "grid", "zoom" and "google maps" did not translate properly, and were more suitable kept in English. I'm sure the same will apply for other languages.
Big thanks up front for any translations! :star: :punch: :thumbsup: :clap: Screenshot with interface translated into Chinese:

Hello Karl

I took the liberty of correcting and improving metallissimus' translation. Capitalisation is very important in the German language! It is also important that verbs on command buttons always begin with a capital letter. The word "anmelden" thus becomes "Anmelden", etc.

Many thanks in advance for your great programming work!

Best regards from Basel
Thomas

Thanks. Somehow I didn't like Blöcke and Raster (mainly the former), maybe I am just used too much to "Denglish". But Vorschaubilder is way better than thumbnails!
I also like the idea behind your translation of failed, maybe fehlgeschlagen would be even better? I guess that might be a regional thing, but schlug fehl sounds really dated to me.

Thank you!

Of course "fehlgeschlagen" is much better! 
For example "Der Upload ist fehlgeschlagen"

:-)

Wish you a beautiful day!
