I am a Chinese and I dicide to do some Drupal translation. And also I would like to learn how to translate a module. The reason is that it's often that there's some error in the current translation. Some of them are very easy to be corrected by doing some text modification in PoEdit. However some of them are difficult for me. I spent the past 3 hours trying to correct a translation problem in the user module, but failed, :(
The problem is as following:
I found my site is still displaying "Create new account" in the "Uesr login" block while "reset password" is in Chinese correctly.
I did some investigation and found that in the PO file, the string is "Create a new account", and there are some similar errors.
My first thought was that I can correct the problem by modifying the original in the PO file. But this is not possible. Or it won't work.
Another way is that I modify the php files replacing "Create new account" with "Create a new account". I think this might work. But it is clear that this is not a good way even if it works.
