NAME
       translate - translation dictionary

SYNOPSIS
       /locale/dict/app
       /locale/locale/dict/app

DESCRIPTION
       A  dictionary  file  provides  translation  text	 that applications can
       access using translate(2).  Each is a Unicode file containing a set  of
       translations, one per line, each line having the following syntax:

	      "source-text" [ (note-text) ] [ ="target-text"  ]

       which defines target-text as the translation for source-text .  A miss‐
       ing translation clause defines the identity translation.	 The  optional
       note-text  qualifies  the  context  of  the  source-text, when the same
       phrase in the source language might translate to different  phrases  in
       the target language, or to distinguish a particular context in the pro‐
       gram (eg, particular menus): For example:

	      "Times"(newspaper) = "La Republicca"
	      "Times"(timetable) = "L'orario"
	      "ABC"(keypad) = "abc"

       Empty lines and lines beginning with # are ignored.  The quoted strings
       can contain the Limbo escape sequences \n (newline), \t (tab), \r (car‐
       riage return), and \\ (backslash).

       The default locale is set by binding one or more specific locales  onto
       /locale/dict.

FILES
       /locale/*/dict/*
