Danish: broad machine-translation cleanup (~640 fixes)#12284
Merged
Conversation
A full 10-slice review of Danish.json (the file was bulk MT-generated)
plus programmatic detection of untranslated strings. ~640 corrections:
- Translated 414 strings still shipped in English (whole blocks: Fix
common errors, Adjust durations, EBU export, the keyboard-shortcut
list, dialog/continuation styles), keeping genuine loanwords and
product/format names in English.
- Fixed 223 quality issues on already-translated strings:
* split compounds / særskrivning (Video fil->Videofil, Skygge
farve->Skyggefarve, Bølgeform farve->Bølgeformfarve, ...)
* remaining "shot change"->gunshot residue (skudskift/skudændring/
Optagelsesændringer) -> sceneskift (now 0 left)
* wrong-sense (Whisper "hvisker"->Whisper, Detect key "nøgle"->tast,
padding "Polstring"->Fyld, Gab->Mellemrum, Spil->Afspil, ...)
* broken numeric format specifiers "{0:#; ## 0. ###}"->"{0:#;##0.###}"
* product name "Undertekstredigering"->"Subtitle Edit" in dialogs
* stray zero-width spaces and dropped quotes
Full key parity with English retained; JSON valid; LanguageJsonFilesTests pass.

A broad, thorough cleanup of the Danish UI translation. The file was bulk machine-translated, leaving large untranslated blocks and pervasive quality issues. This pass was driven by a 10-slice native-reviewer sweep plus programmatic detection of untranslated strings.
Relates to #12272.
What changed (~640 corrections, 518 value edits)
Translated 414 strings still shipped in English — whole blocks that were never translated:
Genuine loanwords and product/format names were intentionally kept in English (Subtitle Edit, Codec, URL, Blu-ray, VobSub, D-Cinema, EBU STL, PAC, Netflix, Whisper, Tesseract, LSTM, mpv, VLC, …).
Fixed 223 quality issues on already-translated strings:
Whisper"hvisker" (whispers) → Whisper;Detect key"nøgle" → "tast"; padding "Polstring" → "Fyld"; "Gab" → "Mellemrum"; "Spil" → "Afspil"; "Fortryd" (undo) → "Annuller";assaDraw"uafgjort" (a tie) → "tegning"; …{0:#; ## 0. ###}→{0:#;##0.###}(the injected spaces broke .NET formatting)Verification
LanguageJsonFilesTestspassAs a native-speaker review this is worth a skim before merge — wording suggestions welcome.
