Stellarium

Problems with language name

Asked by Adriano Steffler

Hello,

As I started to translate Stellarium into my mother tongue (Hunns-rikk), I noted that its name appeared in the language selection menu as "Riograndenser Hunsrückisch". This denomination refers only to one variant of this language, spoken at the Brazilian state Rio Grande do Sul. And this is also a little problematic, because this is a German denomination, not the native name. Since there are native speakers of Hunns-rikk in others states and countries, I want to know, if it's possible to change the name "Riograndenser Hunsrückisch" to the native language name "Hunns-rikk".

Thanks in advance,

Best regards, Adriano Steffler

Hmm... I have question: on launchpad native name of this language is write as "Hunnsrikk" - without hyphen - this correct?

Yes, this is also correct. Both forms can be used. But in this language, all compound words with separate pronunciation are normally written with hyphen, and this includes the name of the language itself: Hunns-rikk. Sometimes I have used the form "Hunnsrikk" on launchpad, but the form with hyphen is more adequate. I think I should request the change of the name also on launchpad, if this is possible.

Thank you for the answer,

Sincerely, Adriano Steffler
