692425 - Some strings in PtBR localization are badly translated.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Mozilla Localizations :: pt-BR / Portuguese (Brazil), defect)

Description

[srfiorini]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:6.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/6.0.2
Build ID: 20110902133214

Steps to reproduce:

Just start Thunderbird/Lightning


Actual results:

Some strings in PtBR localization have weird translations, at best. Examples:
-In task alarms, what I think is "Dismiss" has been translated as "Desistir", which translates back to "Give up". The right translation would be "Descartar", or "Dispensar".
-In mini calendar panel (over tasks panel), what I think is "Close events", has been translated as "Proximamente", which is funny, if not plain wrong. A good translation would be "Próximos", or something like that.
-In "create a new task" dialog, the button "save and close" (and related menu itens) is translated as "Guardar e fechar". I think the right is "Salvar e fechar".
-Some strings are translated european portuguese.


Expected results:

The strings should be right! :)

Sorry for not replying earlier. I am not sure if the strings are from Lightning or Thunderbird. What I can say is that the strings appear when interacting with Lightning panels.

Looking at code repository [https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-aurora/pt-BR] I found that the messages you pointed are already right translated.
So, this bug is solved!

All of the mentioned strings are from the pt-PT localization, the pt-BR versions are correct, as pointed by Marcos.
