NDFP Nepali PostgreSQL Message Draft v0.1

This package contains AI-assisted controlled Nepali draft translations for all PostgreSQL message components present in the supplied pgtranslation/messages snapshot.

This is not a final translation and must not be submitted upstream as-is. Native Nepali review and PostgreSQL technical review are required.

Scope

• Components: 29
• Draft entries: 12008
• Plural entries: 73
• Entries marked [REVIEW: ...]: 7971
• Placeholder issues detected by local checker: 0

Components

See stats/component_stats.tsv.

Method

The generator uses a conservative controlled-draft policy:

1. simple operational messages are translated into Nepali where confidence is reasonable;
2. technical PostgreSQL terms, SQL keywords, utility names, options, and placeholders are preserved;
3. hard semantic terms are marked with [REVIEW: term];
4. long help strings, complex sentences, or mostly untranslated messages are marked [REVIEW: ...];
5. placeholders are checked after generation.

This is intentionally not a fully polished Nepali translation. It is a work-saving pre-review layer.

Review workflow

Contribution Guidelines

• Check for existing PRs.
• Ask for the current status of the translations made.
• Add own translations over the exisiting translations

1. Review glossary/NDFP_NEPALI_GLOSSARY_v0_1.md.
2. Review review/review_entries.tsv.
3. Fix terms and remove [REVIEW: ...] markers component by component.
4. Run gettext validation (msgfmt --check --statistics) in a system with gettext tools installed.
5. Only then create clean ne/*.po files for upstream discussion.

Directory layout

• po/<component>/ne.draft.<component>.po — draft .po files.
• glossary/ — glossary draft.
• review/ — review index and placeholder check output.
• stats/ — per-component statistics.
• scripts/ — generator script placeholder.

Important limitation

This draft is designed to save mechanical work, preserve PostgreSQL syntax, and focus human review on difficult terminology. It is not a substitute for native Nepali translation.

Contribution Guidelines

• Check for existing PRs.
• Ask for the current status of the translations made.

• Create a new fork and branch with following name format: worktype-translation-yourname e.g. review-translation-shri.
• [NECESSARY] Look over the translations before committing: git add DIR_NAME -p.
