Calibre in Hebrew

doto · 06-06-2013, 04:43 AM

My calibre had Hebrew as an option for the language with which to use the software, on one of the last updates this option disappeared, is there a way to get Hebrew back?
thanks

Languages for which an insufficiently large fraction of text has been translated are automatically removed. If you want to see Hebrew back, you will have to help with the translation effort, see http://calibre-ebook.com/get-involved

And I really appreciate and thank you for the wonderful tool you have created in Calibre, which is a pleasure to use. I didn't mean reading Hebrew books with calibre, as there are indeed very few, but meant using the language for the software itself, which was once possible. I read in English, but would love having the software in Hebrew, is that still possible?

thanks again

Kovid understood your question and answered it.

Not enough of the text in the Calibre user interface has been translated into Hebrew. The option will reappear when volunteers have translated enough of the untranslated text items.

See this page

Hebrew has over 4,000 translations needed. Perhaps you could help with that?

As you can see Hebrew is pretty lacking.
