Re: Requesting Luganda (lg) language support

Hi Timothy,

You can add the language yourself in a project you want to translate. See the steps below:

1- Browse the project you want to translate (e.f. dnf5 in https://translate.fedoraproject.org/projects/dnf5/)

2- In the Languages view, press the plus sign (+) on the upper-left corner of the page, right over the first language

3- Search for "Luganda" or its language code "lg", and click it to have it selected,

4- Finally, press "Start new translation"

This will start creating the translation files for the components that belong to the selected project.

Once this step is completed, all projects translated to this language (right now only one) will be shown in Luganda languge page https://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/lg/

Best regards,

Rafael

Hello Fedora L10N Team,
My name is Timothy Ssewanyana and I am based in Kampala, Uganda. I am a native Luganda speaker and I would like to start the Luganda translation team for Fedora.
Currently, Luganda is not available on the Fedora Weblate instance. Could you please add the Luganda (lg) language so I can begin translating?
Best regards.
