I’ve signed up on Crowdin, but I’m not sure how to start. I’m going to be working on Spanish (and probably later French), which is mostly done, but there are some gender mismatches and other grammar errors. So rather than translating strings that haven’t been translated yet, I want to look for parti…

Depending on the text or code editor you’re using, you could try a Regular Expression search. The search string /\bt(u|i|ú)\b/ should match only whole-word instances of “tu”, “ti”, and “tú”. You might have to play with the options for ú to make sure it is matching against Unicode characters.

If you need help, people have to know what language/locale you want to change. Maybe you can find the string in https://github.com/inaturalist/inaturalist/blob/main/config/locales/es.yml but maybe not… Or you can export the file from Crowdin ( if you know what spanish means) and search in the ex…

As a Moderator noted on the related thread you started: [image] Changed the language to Spanish the forum really isn’t for individual translation issues/questions.

I saw this quote but where would you start with a problem stated as above? Although I agree with developers who want to help also do not post their questions here on the forum.

My position remains: [image] Changed the language to Spanish My thoughts: ideally, the Spanish language cleanup, if needed, should be left to the Spanish speakers in Spanish speaking countries, just as the French cleanup should be left to the French speakers in French speaking countries, etc. (B…
