🥇 Hacktoberfest: Add language translation for symbol files

[btk]

Hello!

This app is an open source project, I work on my free time. And the app is published in google play. It is totally free. Basically what this app does is; lists bunch of symbols and people with autism use this app to communicate with their surroundings.

That symbols triggers TTS on press.

But since most of the people with autism can only understand their native language, it is really important for this app to support multiple languages.

If you are a bilingual and want to contribute to this app, you can submit your translations of this app's symbol data.

How To Submit A Translation?

• For this project
• Duplicate file /data/card_en.json with your language code (eg: /data/card_es.json)
• Start translating the cards.

Only translate the title and phrase properties, other properties are used for symbol images etc.

	{
		"type": "card",
		"title": "Grandparents",
		"slug": "grandparents",
		"parents": [
			"people"
		],
		"phrases": [
			{
				"symbol": "hand",
				"phrase": "I love my grandparents"
			},
			{
				"symbol": "hand",
				"phrase": "I want to see my grandparents"
			}
		]
	}

So the properties needed to be translated are these;

	{
		"type": "card",
		"title": "**TRANSLATE_THIS**",
		"slug": "grandparents",
		"parents": [
			"people"
		],
		"phrases": [
			{
				"symbol": "hand",
				"phrase": "**TRANSLATE_THIS**"
			},
			{
				"symbol": "hand",
				"phrase": "**TRANSLATE_THIS**"
			}
		]
	}

I translated English to Turkish and it usually takes about 10 minutes if you are fast at typing :) Think of the people using this app will appreciate you! And also get your hacktoberfest credits in 👍

[rafa-acioly]

i'll do for Portuguese (Brazil) can i use card_pt-br.json?

[btk]

@rafa-acioly yes, sure; I think we also actually do others in that format tho, we can use like this;

card_en_US.json
card_pt_BR.json
card_tr_TR.json
card_en_AU.json
...

Thank you I'm adding you

[rafa-acioly]

@btk the first phrase is an affirmation and the second is a question?

example:

{
    "symbol": "hand",
    "phrase": "I don't want to drink water"
},
{
    "symbol": "hand",
    "phrase": "Do you want to drink water"
},

[btk]

@rafa-acioly in this case, yes but not usually. So using english version as blue print would be better.

[rafa-acioly]

@btk i was thinking to use a question mark at the end like:
Do you want to drink water: Você quer beber água?

[btk]

@rafa-acioly yes it is totally ok. Actually in english version question mark is missing in mistake probably.
