Hello,

We have fully translated version of latest lxadmin into Turkish with small problem ( in fact very very big )

Our native language does not accept simple suffixes for making a word plural..

In our language s means "ler" or "lar". It depends last vowels of word to add ler or lar.
But we have another rule.. Some root of words gets changed when a plural prefix added

Let'me give an example

Domain name (singular )
Domain names (plural ) which is enough to add an "s"

Domain name = Alan adi
Domain names != Alan adilar
Domain names = Alan adlari

I'm sure you gotcha what i mean..

at the end, can you please give up writing get_plural function and create a full translation file for everything


thanks

Write get_plural like this:

--------------
function get_plural($word)
{
include_once "lang/tr/plural.inc";

if (isset($plural_list[$word])) {
return $plural_list[$word];
}

return "{$word}s";
}
--------------

lang/tr/plural.inc will look like this:

---------------
<?php

$plural_list['domain_whatever'] = "plural of the word';
---------


This way, you get to have your own per-word plural, but saves us a huge amount of trouble, not needing to think about plurals at all.

Thanks.

function get_plural($word)
{
include_once "/usr/local/lxlabs/lxadmin/httpdocs/lang/tr/plural.inc";

if (in_array($word,$plural_list)) {
return $plural_list[$word];
}

Hello,

"php plural.inc" gives no syntax errors.
all files in that folder owned by "lxlabs"

I'm curious about $word is translated version of original file or name of "array key" ?

thanks

Why did you use in_array? Use isset($plural_list[strtolower($word)]), that way, it is more guaranteed to work.

Thanks.

NOpe. Isset is looking for the key. The in_array is looking for the __value__ and that's why you are getting the error. Use isset. Also, try a print in the function itself and see what's the output.

print_r($plural_list);

Thanks.

print_R prints $plural_list array.

I am still confused

$word variable which we try to find in array.

$word contais transtlated version of real word.. right?

Yes. Of course, you are right. The $word is the translated version. The plural_list should be an array of the form:

$plural_list['turkish version of ticket'] = 'turkish version of plural';

Thanks.

this never works


my langfunctionlib.php
----------------------------------
<?php

function get_plural($word)
{
include_once "/usr/local/lxlabs/lxadmin/httpdocs/lang/tr/plural.inc";

#echo "Requested word : $word\n<pre>";
#print_r($plural_list);

if (isset($plural_list[$word])) {
return $plural_list[$word];
}


return "{$word}ler";
}
?>


------------------------------------------------------------ -

my plural.inc

$plural_list['Bilgi'] = "Bilgiler";
$plural_list['Kayıt'] = "Arıza Kayıtları";
$plural_list['Mesaj'] = "Mesajlar";
$plural_list['Dosyalar'] = "Dosyalar";
$plural_list['DNS Şablonu'] = "DNS Şablonlar<C4><B1>";
$plural_list['Mysql Veri Tabanı'] = "Mysql Veri Tabanları";
$plural_list['Ssl Sertifika'] = "Ssl Sertifikaları";
.
.
.


what's wrong with this?
