While localizing https://www.transifex.com/django/django/contrib-admin-
js/, I ran into the following string in
contrib/admin/static/admin/js/calendar.js:11:
January February March April May June July August September October
November December
Which I have now to translate as:
Faoilleach Gearran Màirt Giblean Cèitean Ògmhios Iuchar Lùnastal
Sultain Dàmhair Samhain Dùbhlachd
However, the natural translation for
January
is
Am Faoilleach
and similarly for all the month names.
The point here is that the code has no way of knowing which whitespaces to
choose as segmentation tokens.
So, I recommend translating these as separate entries, just like in the
Python part of the code. The "S M T W T F S" string should then also be
split for consistency.
