The additions look great -- thank you 👍 |
@jly36963, Unfortunately, it breaks the translation a bit :) If we describe an option or command, then the feminine adjective [устаревшая] ( I think I should make a tiny change and replace the word “устаревшая” with the gender‐neutral abbreviation “устаревш.”. It’s not an ideal, but common solution in Russian. (The ICU As far as I know, a similar problem occurs in the Ukrainian locale: “аргумент... [застарілий]” ( |
@edukisto |
Such a convention would work with only adjectives: “Этот [опциональный/позиционный] аргумент — устаревший” (“The [optional/positional] argument is deprecated”). But “options” and “positionals” are nouns both in English and Russian.
Unfortunately, yes. We should use an abbreviation. “устар.” is better than “устаревш.”, because it is widely used in encyclopedias and dictionaries, including Wiktionary. |
@jly36963 does this sound good to you? |
@bcoe Yeah, I think the PR looks great 👍 |
Resolves #2180.
I’ll put my thoughts here so you can correct me.
The translation is verified, see the English (“
-p
and-v
options are mutually exclusive”) and Russian (“параметры-p
и-v
являются взаимоисключающими”) Ubuntu man pages.There is no proper translation for the word “positionals”. That’s why the translation contains the noun (“Позиционные аргументы” means “Positional arguments”).
The word “устаревшая” (deprecated) is a feminine adjective, because “команда” (command) and “опция” (option) are feminine nouns in Russian. (Is it possible to make a deprecated argument?)
We can use the adjective in most cases. For example, the phrases “Функция помечена как устаревшая” (“The function is marked as deprecated”), “Эта функция — устаревшая” (“This function is deprecated”), and “Это устаревшая функция” (“This is a deprecated function”) are perfectly correct. However, the past tense verb “устарела” seems more natural in the phrase “Эта функция устарела” (“This function has been deprecated”).
