Three places built user-visible English out of expressions rather than
writing it as JSX text, so the extraction codemod never found them and
they stayed English in all nine languages — including the five that have
been in production for weeks.
The calendar view switcher was the worst of them: it spelled its labels
as `v[0].toUpperCase() + v.slice(1)`, which is correct English and
untranslatable anywhere else. Day, Week, Month and Agenda were already in
every catalogue, sitting unused, because the buttons never asked for
them. They now come from a Record<View, () => string>, so TypeScript
makes the map exhaustive and adding a view forces adding its label. The
labels are functions rather than values: a module-level object would
capture whichever language happened to load first and keep it.
The other two needed new source strings, added to all nine catalogues:
the composer's title for an untitled draft ("New message"), its status
line ("Sending…", "Saving…", "Error", "Saved {when}", "Unsaved"), and the
agenda view's own title ("Agenda from {date}").
This is not the whole of it. A sweep for the same shape — template
literals, toast arguments, and dialog props rather than JSX text — turns
up roughly a hundred more strings, mostly toasts and confirmation
dialogs. Those are a second extraction pass rather than a fix, and are
left for one.
781 strings, machine-made and marked Beta, on the same terms as the five
Phase 1 languages: the report link stands in for the native speaker we
do not have, and a missing entry falls back to English, so deleting a bad
line is a valid fix.
Two things differ in kind from the European catalogues, and the file
header records both so a later editor does not undo them.
Plurals: there are none. Intl.PluralRules("zh-Hans") returns `other` for
every number, so each counted string carries one form. Supplying `one`,
`few` or `many` would be filling in a distinction the language does not
draw, and none of them would ever be selected.
Script: this is Simplified, and the tag says so. A Traditional catalogue
would be a separate file rather than a character conversion of this one —
the vocabulary differs as much as the script does (软件/軟體, 文件/檔案),
and converting characters alone produces text that is readable and
obviously foreign.
Verified against the mock server: role folders localise and custom ones
are left alone, dates and the calendar follow the language, and the
catalogue code-splits into its own 41 kB chunk.
