Hi all,
I’ve recently started to internacionalize a website which currently is localized as pt_BR
(Brazilian portuguese) and I’m confused how I should organized the Gettext msgid
's.
For example, I currenlty have this piece of text “Mais visitadas” which means “Most visited” in English.
So, in other words, I’m replacing <p>Mais visitadas</p>
to something like <p><%= gettext("Mais visitadas") %></p>
.
My question is: does it make sense to use the pt_BR
locale as the msgid
or should I do something like <p><%= gettext("Most visited") %></p>
and then set the pt_BR
in the PO file?
I’m asking because, even being a portuguese site, we usually write all the code/docs/etc in English. But does this same idea worth for the Gettext msgid
? Or would it be just a matter of taste?
