make sure that the internationalization works. My English is clearly North <br>
American, so I'm fine with the English file being labeled en-US. My Spanish, <br>
though, I'm not so sure. I know it's Leftpondian, but can't pick a specific <br>
country. My accent is Salvadoran, with admixture of my other native languages, <br>
as that's where my mother grew up. My vocabulary, though, is a mishmash of <br>
words I picked up from Spanish speakers from all over the Americas. I'm <br>
hesitant to call it es-US, as that to me means Spanish spoken by people whose <br>
ancestors have been in the US for at least a few generations.<br>
<br>
As far as terms that are likely to be in translation files, I say <br>
"computadora", but I'm fine with "ordenador", as my second language is French. <br>
I say "fichero", but that may again be because of French.<br>
<br>
The Spanish file says "es" in the header, but Qt Linguist calls it "español de <br>
España". Is this a quirk of Qt Linguist? Should I rename the English file, <br>
which has "en-US" in the header, to have "en-US" in the filename?<br>
