# Finnish translation style guide
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Guidelines
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tervetuloa!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before you start, take a look these instructions we have gathered here
|
||
|
|
for you to help on your translation journey.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Word order
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Consider translating the same thing with the easiest Finnish possible.
|
||
|
|
It's not mandatory to follow the English text word by word, as long as
|
||
|
|
the message is clear.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Eg.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Click the button below to create the organization and register your
|
||
|
|
account. -> Luo organisaatio ja rekisteröi tilisi napsauttamalla
|
||
|
|
alla olevaa painiketta.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Sent! Your message is outside your current narrow. -> Lähetetty!
|
||
|
|
Viesti on nykyisen näkymäsi ulkopuolella.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Grammatical case (Sijamuodot)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Translate using the UI to be sure what is the correct grammatical
|
||
|
|
case. Basic form of a word might not always be suitable for the
|
||
|
|
purpose.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Eg.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Topics marked as resolved -> Ratkaistut aiheet (versus Aiheet, jotka on merkitty ratkaistuiksi)
|
||
|
|
- View Shortcuts -> Katsel**un** pikanäppäimet
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Loan word (Lainasanat)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Even though it's common to use words formed directly from English, try
|
||
|
|
to consider also users without IT background, people that don't speak
|
||
|
|
English and accessibility. User interface should contain these with
|
||
|
|
minimum amount, but for technical error messages could be preferred.
|
||
|
|
There are some amount of software related words that are widely used
|
||
|
|
as loan words.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See section [Terms](#terms) for more details.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### **_Please_**, in error messages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As it might appeal to use correspondence _Ole hyvä ja_, it's not
|
||
|
|
commonly used in Finnish. We are strict and used to more direct
|
||
|
|
messaging. Let's not translate _please_ and use instruction format
|
||
|
|
only. No Finn is going to be offended by this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Eg.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Please enter at most 10 emails. -> Lisää korkeintaan 10 sähköpostia.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Yes, please! -> Kyllä, kiitos!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Zulip word inflection
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- in/from Zulip - **Zulipissa** / **Zulipista** / **Zulipin**
|
||
|
|
- Zulip organization - **Zulip-organisaatio**
|
||
|
|
- Zulip app - **Zulip-sovellus**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Your -expression
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finnish language has _form of ownership_ so there shouldn't be need to
|
||
|
|
thanslate _your_ as _sinun_ but rather use _si_ ending. It might be
|
||
|
|
considered to leave out as well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Eg.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Your organization -> Organisaatio**si**
|
||
|
|
- Your account -> Tili**si**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You do have active accounts in the following organization(s). ->
|
||
|
|
Sinulla ei ole aktiivista tiliä seuraavissa organisaatio(i)ssa.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Comma
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use commas in whole sentences where it is required. You can use these instructions as help.
