Ask HN: Translations for common words?

5 points by dylz 9y ago ↗ HN

Is there some sort of "common gettext repository" for really common phrases such as Log in /Log out / Register / etc that exists somewhere with a reasonable licence in multiple languages, or should I end up trying to re-translate everything from scratch?

I recommend finding a project that is localized and has a license you like and starting there.

The Microsoft Terminology Collection is a great resource for this. I'm not sure how the license works though but it's probably worth a look: https://www.microsoft.com/language/en-us/Search.aspx?sString...
