It's not clear why we do not want translations here - looping in L10n and l10n-qa to help clarify and provide options.

Comment 2

[Milos Dinic [:Milos]]

I don't really know why we mustn't have this translated, to be honest. That said, these were not translated, per se,  but transliterated. This is an example of Serbian Cyrillic, so it may seem translated with abbreviations being preserved, but in Serbian Latin, MAC address would be "MAC adresa". So, basically, we're writing as we pronounce, so we transliterate these so that people could read it in Serbian and pronounce it just as they would in English.

Hope this makes sense.

 Hi,
 
 this is the request from the customer to keep english abbreviation for technical words.
 
 TCL will keep it as per customer requirements, and in the same manner as we done the translation on android smartpones for Serbia/montenegro area.
 
 Thanks

Milos, I know you have commented on comment 2 already but i'd like to have your confirmation on this again.
if we don't feel that it makes sense to take the suggestion, then our partners can make their own modifications in their local repo to fulfill their customer requests 
Thanks

Joe, as I already stated: I'd like to keep stuff as they are, because I think that's the most efficient way to present stuff to our users. If I absolutely have to, I'll revert all those words back to English, but I'd need the full list of words you want me to revert to English.
