Egypt for Ti-68K - Page 1

Hi, that's nice
I'm available for the french translation.

Great game!

Sorry Sasume, it was so short, I made a translation in few minutes:

// Puzzle screen text and messages:

Etapes:

Rotations:

Puzzle Terminé

Puzzle Raté!


Annuler?
Enter=Oui
Esc=Non


// Other messages:

Niveau Terminé

Niveau <n>

Le jeu est terminé!
Félicitations!


// Menu texts:

Egypt pour Ti-68K:

Quitter?

Esc=Non



// Error messages:

Une erreur s'est produite:

Erreur de niveau de gris!

Plus de mémoire!

Impossible de charger le jeu!
Impossible de sauver le jeu!

I'm open for all corrections and suggestions, i'm not a translation master.

(I don't like "puzzle raté" but have no alternative idea)

Why not "Echec du puzzle"? Is it too long?

the puzzle itself is not failing, you are

./7:

OK, tu veux traduire le README aussi, squalyl ? (sinon je le ferai quand j'aurai un moment )
Ouais, pour "puzzle raté" faut voir si on trouve pas autre chose... genre "puzzle non résolu" ?

OK, here's my translation of the readme file : Fichier joint : readme_fr.txt
(amis francophones n'hésitez pas à me relire !)

I'd say `nouvelle partie' rather than `nouveau jeu'
I would also not say `puzzle' (which in French means `jigsaw puzzle' specifically). What's the difference between puzzle cleared and level cleared ? is each level a sequence of several puzzles ? (edit : ok it is, I had not read the readme file). If that is the case I would suggest translating `puzzle' to `tableau' maybe.
Also, I would say `abandonner' and not `annuler' (`annuler' could give the impression that you want to undo the last move).
And I would only capitalize the first word of each piece of text, it looks very bizarre in French to have capitals to every word.

edit (cross) : for the readme the main thing I have to say is again that puzzle means jigsaw. For `puzzle game' I would say `jeu d'énigmes' or `jeu de réflexion', and elsewhere the same thing as in the ingame text, so `tableau' or maybe `problème' (which is the usual word for crosswords for example)...
apart from that I would say `objet magique' rather than `élément' which sounds strange. And it's `sauvegarde précédEnte' ^^

Sally's suggestions look good to me.

Yes, I fully agree withj Sally, thx
Here's is the modified file : Fichier joint : readme_fr.txt

I'm also OK with Sally, here's the corrected version:

// Puzzle screen text and messages:

Rotations:

Tableau raté!

Enter=Oui
Esc=Non

// Other messages:

Thx Thepro.

the name of the readme should be lisezmoi, not lizesmoi -- aside from that it looks good

Have you received my mail ? I sent you a mail containing this note, and several other things, yesterday evening.

OK, fine then
I've received your reply as well.
