Project Details

CONSUL is "the most complete citizen participation tool for an open, transparent and democratic government." It is a place where one can solve problems, make decisions, hold elections and manage budgets by means of features such as debates, proposals, participatory budgeting and more. The software is free, customizable, secure (as it includes a registration system that protects the privacy of its users), and has on-going support from the technical and development teams, as well as insight from the many institutions that use it. These are scattered all over the world, but I have yet to see one in Poland. In order to make it more accessible for my compatriots, I decided to take part in its translation into Polish.

Translation Overview

The text I translated - again - consisted of parts of the UI and instructions concerning the functions of the platform. My familiarity with the project aided this translation immensely, as it enabled me to go through the strings with relative ease, as well as keep the consistency of the translation by sticking to the nomenclature I previously introduced. I still did my best to retain the politeness and simplicity of the translated strings, making sure the explanations are clear and easily understandable.

Languages

I am translating the project into Polish.

Word Count

According to CrowdIn, I am now at 3453 words translated, up from 2343 in my last post. That means that for part three I translated 1110 words.
