Important notes

To ensure a smooth collaboration process, please consider the following important points while translating:

Keep the translated text the same length as the original text

This is to ensure it doesn’t break the UI layout when displayed on the app.

For example, the text “Disabled” when translated to Vietnamese, “Đã tắt” and “Đã bị vô hiệu hóa” both have the same meaning, but “Đã tắt” is preferred instead of “Đã bị vô hiệu hóa” because it has roughly the same amount of characters, and displayed with the same size on the app UI.

Avoid translating key technical terms and brand name

Don’t translate the technical terms and brand names when you find it suitable. For example: TypingMind (brand name, don’t translate), prompts, etc.

Check out below for more cases:

Handle variables, syntax, plurality, etc. in the translated text

Keep variables in translation messages

plain text
Handler for function {name} not found.

{name} is a variable in this translation, it must be kept as the original, only translate other words

For example, it should be translated like this: Hàm xử lý cho hàm {name} không tìm thấy

Keep component syntax in translation messages

plain text
Make sure you have your billing info added in <0>OpenAI Billing</0> page:

Basically, <0>OpenAI Billing</0> is a link, if you delete <0> and </0>, it will be no longer a link.

The translated text should be like this:

Đảm bảo bạn đã thêm thông tin thanh toán ở trang <0>Thanh toán của OpenAI</0>

Singular, plural form

plain text
{0, plural, one {# chat} other {# chats}}

This is a plural message, you only need to translate the words in { } after one and other, the # symbol represents the number, so just keep it.

The proper translation might be:

plain text
{0, plural, one {# hội thoại } other {# hội thoại}}

If your language has more than “one” and “other” plural forms, you can translate the message and add some forms like this:

plain text
{0, plural, =0 {# hội thoại} one {# hội thoại } few {# hội thoại} many {# hội thoại} other {# hội thoại}}
