[Translation] Does the Indonesian translation sound right to you? | Bahasa Indonesia: Butuh bantuan #57
Description
Indonesian is fully translated, and nobody who speaks Indonesian has ever read it.
All 116 strings are present, so this one needs checking rather than
finishing. The maintainer only speaks English and cannot tell whether the
result sounds like something a person would say.
What to look for
- Words that are technically correct but that no native speaker would use
- Video editing terms: clip, render, timeline, caption, watermark. These often
have an established word among editors that is not the dictionary one - The same English word translated three different ways on three screens
- Text that outgrows its button
- A label that does not match what the button actually does
Reporting
Current: [what the app says now]
Suggested: [what it should say]
Why: [one line]
One string is worth reporting. So is a hundred.
To fix it yourself: edit ui/src/renderer/src/locales/id.json and open a
pull request mentioning this issue. Change only that file.
Full guide: docs/TRANSLATING.md
Optional: does the AI work in Indonesian?
Much bigger job, entirely optional. Run a video naturally spoken in Indonesian and
say whether transcription got the words right, whether the clips chosen made
sense, and whether the generated titles came out in Indonesian rather than English.
Two caveats before you spend time: only gemma:7b, gemma3:4b and
gemma3:12b have ever been tested, so anything else is unmeasured rather than
endorsed (see #38). And AI dubbing cannot be tested from an installed copy at
all, because the speech engine is not bundled.
Bahasa Indonesia
Pengembang aplikasi ini hanya berbahasa Inggris dan tidak bisa menilai apakah terjemahan Indonesia terdengar wajar atau memakai istilah penyuntingan video yang lazim.
Kalau ada kalimat yang bisa dipahami tetapi tidak wajar, tolong tetap laporkan. Cukup tulis komentar berisi teks saat ini dan teks yang benar; tidak perlu membuat pull request.

Pull requests are welcome
Spotting the problem is the hard part, and if you can spot it you can almost
certainly fix it. Edit ui/src/renderer/src/locales/id.json, change only
that file, and open a pull request that mentions this issue.
It is a good first pull request: one file, no build to set up, no code to
understand, and quick to review. If it is your first contribution to anything,
that is fine — say so and I will help.
Commenting is still a complete contribution if you would rather not. Both are
genuinely useful.
Bahasa Indonesia: Pull request sangat diterima — silakan perbaiki sendiri.
