[GRASS-translations] Spanish translation

[Enrique Cerrillo Cuenca]

Hi,

“Location” does not mean “localidad” (municipality, village) in Spanish. I think that although “localización” might sound weird in Spanish, is the right term. “Localización” means “action and effect of locating” (Royal Academy of Spanish language: Acción y efecto de localizar).

Please be careful about what you translate, Spanish users can be really confused if you change basic terms like this one. Maybe you should have addressed your question to the Spanish list of GRASS (http://lists.osgeo.org/listinfo/grass-es <http://lists.osgeo.org/listinfo/grass-es>).

Some years ago there was a person who managed the Spanish translations of GRASS, but I don’t know who is in charge right now.

Enrique
