Genre translation
posted by Meshal433STAFFMOD on October 26, 2012 at 10:57 AM
Hi everyone,
How to translate genres into Arabic? And how to write actors' names in Arabic?
I'm basically trying to improve the Arabic content in the database (which is very poor unfortunately). So if there is anything else that can be translated please let me know.
Your help is appreciated.

Just wondering if this has been actioned for zh-TW? The genre matched for Plex is still shown as Simplified Chinese (zh-CN), not Traditional Chinese (zh-TW).
All other matches are displayed correctly for zh-TW. Only genre is not matching correctly.

I'm not really sure but...
I believe that the gender translation corrections will only be made
after the implementation of the separation of languages by country.
See the task on the To-Do list here:

These are simple and quick things to do.... in two minutes this done. Putting that on a waiting list, you'd been forgotten for years. The separation of languages for years that we are waiting for..... unfortunately. It was supposed to be in 2019, then 2020, then came this Trello list and virtually disappeared from the list and you never know what will be done. And that's something that should be a priority. Because every day that passes more wrong images are added and much more work will have in the future to make the sections.

In general I aggree with the German translation by @OttoKerner several years ago. Currently the German genre translation is still not 100% accurate imho:
Movies (some German genres currently have the suffix 'film' which can be always added or not, but since the genres apply for film/movies it is a bit weird... even more: Genres should always be the main 'noun'):
TV Series (first: some tv genres are not translated and are still english and second: naming the genre translation for movies and tv series should be equal imho...like for e.g. not 'Science Fiction' for movies and 'Sci-Fi' for tv series. But my second note is just a side note):

I want to bring up this again. How to add the genre in zh-TW? It was requested a couple times in 2020, 2021, 2022 but didn't get any responses. @bogomil22 do you think you can help here? Thanks.
