This form allows you to create a new "Locale"
-- an object representing a language and a region that can be used in translating Yioop
to a new language.
- The Name field should be filled in with a name for the locale in the language of the locale.
- So for French you would put Français.
- The Locale tag field should be the IETF language tag. For example, fr-FR for French
from France.
- The Writing Mode dropdown says the direction text runs in for
this locale, which Yioop uses to lay out pages written in it. There are
four choices: lr-tb, left to right from the top of the page down, as in
English; rl-tb, right to left from the top down, as in Hebrew and
Arabic; tb-rl, top to bottom with lines running right to left, as in
Classical Chinese; and tb-lr, top to bottom with lines running left to
right, as in non-Cyrillic Mongolian and American Sign Language. Pick the
one your language is normally written in; where a language is written
more than one way, pick the way readers of your site expect.
- The Locale Enabled checkbox says whether or not users of this Yioop installation can select this
locale from various language dropdown that appear on the Yioop site.
