# Keep Android Open — NL Translation File

# ==========================================================================

#

# HOW TO TRANSLATE:

#

# 1. Find the key you want to translate in the "TRANSLATABLE KEYS" section

# below (they are listed as comments with their English values).

#

# 2. Uncomment the line (remove the leading "# ") and replace the English

# text with your translation.

#

# 3. Keep HTML tags (<strong>, <a href="...">, <em>, <i>) intact — only

# translate the visible text between the tags.

#

# 4. Keep YAML quoting intact: use double quotes for values that contain

# special characters. For long values, use >- for folded scalars.

#

# 5. Validate your file at https://onlineyamltools.com/validate-yaml

# The file must be valid YAML and must NOT contain duplicate keys.

#

# 6. Submit your changes as a pull request on GitHub.

#

# IMPORTANT:

# Translations MAY be drafted with the assistance of a machine translation

# tool or LLM, but they MUST be reviewed and submitted by a NATIVE SPEAKER

# of the target language. We do not accept unreviewed machine translations.

# Fluency, natural phrasing, and cultural accuracy matter.

# ==========================================================================

# Active translations for this locale:

# TRANSLATABLE KEYS

# Below are ALL keys from en.yaml, shown as comments.
