https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12417 --- Comment #61 from Thorsten Trippel <thorsten.trippel@uni-tuebingen.de> 2011-12-08 10:29:06 UTC --- (In reply to comment #60) To clarify my previous remark: If a website is translated from say English into Spanish, the resulting page should not be translated again. That is: if a machine translation application comes to the Spanish page, the translate="no" will instruct the processor not to translate this page. The application will then have to decide on what to do next, for example ask the user to ignore this instruction or just show the website as it is. In many of these cases the user will see a language selection on top of these pages (such as flags, etc.), indicating that a version of the page in the desired language is already available. Hence the instruction translate="no" complements the xml:lang="es" in the said example. The English original could however have xml:lang="en" and an explicit or inherited translate="yes", instructing an MT or other translation process to actually translate that page, if the value of the lang attribute is not the desired language. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
