Subject: revert Guix French translation: bootable ?
Date: Wed, 06 Nov 2024 22:41:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ses4yr92.fsf@pelzflorian.de> (raw)

Hello.  I have a question on what term should be used in the French
translation.  I am not proficient in French myself, but I wonder if we
should revert a translation change.

In the French translation, Léane Grasser (harmful-breeze) [1] today in
guix-translations commit [2] changed occurrences of
« chargeur d'amorçage »
as well as
« chargeur de démarrage »
to the English term
« bootloader ».
Some uses of amorçage in other contexts are still unchanged, some are not.

Amorçage and démarrage are not mentioned in the glossary [3].

I see mention of « amorçable » on Wikipedia [4], giving the impression
that French terms are preferred by the Académie Française. (?)

Regards,
Florian
