As a translator who meets the Polyglots General Expectations, I would
like to request PTEProject Translation Editor A Project Translation Editor (often referred to as PTE) is a person, who has access to validate strings on a specific project (for example BuddyPress, WooCommerce or Twenty Fourteen) for one specific locale. A project translation editor can approve strings that are added by translation contributors. Per project translation, editors are appointed by a general translation editor after a request by the project author or by the contributors themselves. status for Rank Math SEO Forms for the Arabic localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico.

I have submitted translation suggestions for this project, which can
be reviewed here:

Notes:
While completing the remaining Arabic translation of the Rank Math SEO pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party., I noticed a number of issues in the existing translated stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings.. I wanted to bring them to your attention so they can be corrected and the overall quality of the Arabic translation can be improved.

I have already corrected them in my local copy. Below is a categorized list of the issues:

-Spelling mistakes (around 38 occurrences): Most of them involve using hamzat al-qat’ where hamzat al-wasl should be used, such as «إستخدام», «إستيراد», «إختيار», and «إستبدال». The correct forms are: استخدام, استيراد, اختيار, and استبدال. There are also obvious typos such as «تضيمن» (تضمين), «توجية» (توجيه), and «إرشيفات» (أرشيفات)

• Translating the brand name (around 30 occurrences): The translation uses “رانك ماث” and “رانك ماث برو”. However, according to the WordPress glossary, brand names should remain in Latin script, and the same translation file already uses Rank Math in Latin script in most places. The correct approach is to standardize them as Rank Math and Rank Math PRO

• Overly literal machine translation: The phrase “Rank Math’s SEO Score” was translated as “تصنيف الرياضيات SEO النتيجة”, which is a word-for-word translation of the brand name (Rank = تصنيف, Math = الرياضيات). The correct translation is: “درجة السيو من Rank Math”.

Unsuitable literal translation: The term Breadcrumb was translated as “فتات الخبز” in five places. A more appropriate translation is “مسار التنقل”, which is also the term used elsewhere in the same translation file

I will pay close attention to these issues while completing the remaining translation and will do my best to improve

Thank you
