We're now using a professional service to translate languages in our major markets. This builds on the fantastic work of our translation community and will enable us to attain full coverage and consistency across languages.
The following languages will be affected:
•Afrikaans
•Belarusian
•Bulgarian
•Chinese (Simplified)
PO files contain lists of tokens and translations. Tokens are stored in "msgid" values and translations in "msgstr" values, e.g.
An untranslated token has an empty msgstr:
While you can edit PO files in any text editor or directly on GitHub, there are some tools which can simplify the process (highlight untranslated tokens etc.)
•Poedit
Example: Deutsch (Deutschland)
Find the locale code for your language in the list below. The file can be found under locales/, e.g. locales/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/duckduckgo.po

•ar_DZ: العربية (الجزائر)
•ar_EG: العربية (مصر)
•ar_JO: العربية (الأردن)

Note: This is only needed for DuckDuckGo employees. Community translators can ignore it 🙂.
To import translations from Smartling:
1.Unzip the output file
2.From this folder, run node ./adapt-translations-from-smartling.js
3.The script will ask for the location of the translated files. On macOS you can drag-drop the folder you just unzipped from Finder right to the terminal window
4.Hit enter
Unfortunately, Deepl doesn't support translating as many languages as the MS translator. If you prefer Deepl, you can use one of the many Deepl !Bangs that DDG offers: https://start.duckduckgo.com/bang?q=Deepl

How do you say Duck in Japanese?
It's translated in japanese (menus and config). Maybe it doesn't have as much answers as google, but It's working for me. If I need to look other things and other languages, I just use google (using !g in DDG lets you search in google from the same search bar). 0 comments.
