Omniglot = omni (Latin “all”) + glot (Greek “language”)
English become modern lingua franca, but it’s always better to have extensions in your own language. Especially if it should be for your users. And what is more user oriented than Community?
That’s why we decided to start JomSocial Omniglot Project, to encourage and reward Translators who want to localize JomSocial.
Do you know English and any other language? Are you a native speaker? You have translation experience or language skill? Are you willing to help?
JomSocial 4.4.4 brings over 300 new language strings. We investigated many hard-coded language, changing them to proper language constants. Some texts ware updated so they may become more understandable describing features. That means more and more text could be localized. If you have a multilingual or non-English website, please, update your languages as soon as you can.
"Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow."
