[Kevin1010]

sometimes i see shortcuts of gifts Wanted in nicknames. Obviously they are in english but as a lot forummembers are not english is there maybe a list?

Sp= Spare propeller for example

Our games are also in our own language. For me in dutch (netherlands)

 

[Husam]

QL = Quantum Leap
MS = Main Stabilizer

GD = Golden Dice
D = Dice
SC = Sky Captain
SF = Secret Faucet
BB = Bottomless Barrel

[Kevin1010]

Ar additional radar
Vr virtual reality glasses
Sw spare wire
Sp spare propeller
Fc can stand either for fuel catalyst or flight catering. Usually catalyst.
Ai attitude indicator
Fa fuel additives
Fs fuel supply
Lol for lollipop
I had the same problem and even sometimes I'm in doubt

I had that idea and even started a spreadsheet with EN terms with PT translations (some of the translations to PT provided by GI don't make sense at least in PT-PT, perhaps they're more intelligible in PT-BR) It took me ages to get my signature ready! Perhaps we could start a multi language spreadsheet for items

 

[Teboho]

With English being my 2nd language imagine me trying to dicipher a dutch or Spanish abbreviation

Whenever I'm in doubt I always go for second choice and / or F20, especially FC which can stand for Flight Catering or Fuel Catalyst

It's a little off topic but this reminds me of a night I played Pub Trivia in Maastricht when I was there for a business trip. The girl was asking questions in Dutch and translating it to English. The Dutch guys were laughing because there were a few occasions where they had no idea of the answer until she asked it in English because it sounded like 2 different questions.

That's not the idea. The problem is the other way round. It's established that we communicate in english, but our games are in different languages so sometimes is really difficult to identify the correct object.
Take for instance the attitude indicator. What does it do? I don't have a clue... attitude? Is that a sensor that tell us the plane is polite and well behaved?
If I take the Portuguese name in AC for that object and translated it word by word to English it would be something like Artificial Horizon. Does that make sense? I don't know, because I know nothing about planes. Well, it could be useful to me knowing that
AI = Attitude indicator = Horizonte Artificial
I think it happens the same with many other players

 

[AshPort]

i had figured most of these out, however if i cannot find then i try to send similar in hope they will let me know

if you have cat, catylist or catering

I will help you how much i can if you need a private thread to make a test for every thing and discuss it there with who want to help lets do it send me private what you need

That's why I changed the language setting in my phone to English!

You should see their Korean Translation!! I couldn't understand some of them until I changed my phone to English.
And even worse, they wrote in Japanese for Fruit Lollipop for Korean game.

I think it's Altitude Indicator. Indicator of height in aviation context, a distance measurement usually in vertical direction.

Attitude? Have no idea.

Same order but in french with some added on
VR = casque VR
sw = cable de rechange
sp = hèlice de rechange
nm = module de navigation
fh = tuyaux de carburant
wc = compas magnetique
ai = orizzonte artificiale
ep = protège tympans

ll = lampe d'atterissage
cat = catalyseur de carburant
er = liseuse
prt = émetteur radio puissant

@Husam why not do a multilanguage table? Put it in the help section.
