Created attachment 179298 [details] English menu The structure protection menu item is workign on the whole document (Document = WorkBook = SpreadSheet), yet in the Russian translaiton it is said to only work on a single (probably the active one) sheet ( = WorkSheet <> SpreadSheet ). See this menu in Russian: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=179160 See the hidden comments "Heiko Tietze 2022-03-28 07:01:38 UTC" and next at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147868#c2 - this terminology really causes confusion even among devs. I ask to 1. fix Russian translation 2. check all other localizations for a similar error 3. consider changing general UI terminology from spreadSHEET to workBOOK or Document to avoid this kind of ambiguity, especially among people with non-native Enlgish
ID for this string is CSTGE and I agree it should be translate to Russian as "Защитить структуру документа" I don't think we should change EN string here, because the word "spreadsheet" is the "whole Calc document" in our small LibreOffice world
> the word "spreadsheet" is the "whole Calc document" in our small LibreOffice world Two problems though 1) there is an outside world of OOo/LOO users 2) even in "your small world" people tend to mistake, as that Heiko's comment hint at. Just because even a "small world" is large enough that few human beings (if any at all) have fine details of every dusty corner live in their memory. "unambiguous by default" can be a better approach than "we can memorize all the details, and they should too"
