Re: i18n base language and database fields

Actually this si 2 questions.

1. View files are generated by bake. So I have for example:
echo $this->Form->input('name');

This will generate a lable contains the string 'Name'. As I understand it could be translated into Hungarian without manually adding the label property, and than use __() method and translate.

But I am not sure how should I do the translation. i18n shell will automatically extratct coloumn names also?

2. I added a menu to my default.ctp with a lot of links in an unordered list. Links are in Hungarian as the current request from the client is Hungarian only. I am pretty sure that they would like to have English also, but later.

So this is a teoretical question. What should I do?

a) make it Hungarian without __() and worry about other languages when they actually ask it?

b) make it Hungarian with __() and later I could make translation

c) make it English with __() and do Hungarian translation now.

d) something else.

I'm not sure I follow, can you give an example of what you need to do?

Hi,

I follow cakePHP conventions, so my database tables and fields have english names, as it so for cake's default error messages. I am building a webapp for a Hungarian client. I would like to use i18n as I think later the client will need internationalizing and localizing. But for now they do not need it.

So I do not want to create all my view files strings in English and than translate to Hungarian, but I want to use translate behaviour to translate database field names to Hungarian.

What is the best approach for this scenario?
