Finnish I18n by illispi · Pull Request #1318 · open-circle/valibot

illispi · 2025-09-21T06:11:20Z

As requested here #1290 I made the Finnish I18n translation.

I am native speaker, but hopefully someone can double check.

These were bit cumbersome, other opinions welcome:

Finite -> "äärellinen" and different "invalid"
item -> "osio"
multiple -> "monikerta"
bytes as "tavumäärä" or "tavut" depending on context.

Hi @illispi Thank you for contributing to the project.

Do you know any Finnish-speaking developers who could check the translation?

fabian-hiller · 2025-09-28T01:24:57Z

I can also finalize the PR (run the script etc.). But if you know another native speaking developer who can review your translations, that would be great!

illispi · 2025-09-28T08:02:54Z

I got feedback on translation from Finnish speaker, but they seemed to have issues commenting to this PR thread though.

Couple of comments, otherwise looks solid and good Finnish to me. Variables looked fine as well by eye, and tested to match like so:

➜  ~ grep -o "issue.received" en.ts | wc -l 
      73
➜  ~ grep -o "issue.received" fi.ts | wc -l
      73
➜  ~ grep -o "issue.expected" en.ts | wc -l
      34
➜  ~ grep -o "issue.expected" fi.ts | wc -l
      34

I would just have Virheellinen luottokortti. Credit card is a credit card, a bank card (pankkikortti) can be a debit card

Maybe if max/min/notGraphemese are same, should max/min/notBytes be too? so notBytes should be Virheellinen tavumäärä instead of Virheelliset tavut

Thank you all! I will try to merge it next week.

komu

Looks pretty good. I added some nitpicky comments, take them as you will.

Overall, I think a lot of the messages feel a bit forced because of the common format "Virheellinen X: ..."

But then again, there's value in consistency, so I guess it's a decent approach. The style is not something that one would use in an actual application, but it's a reasonable one-size-fits-all solution for this kind of thing.

In English having a capital letter after a colon is natural, but in Finnish it feels awkward and unprofessional.

I'd use "Virheellinen tyyppi: odotettiin ..." here and similarly for the other cases.

+    digits:           (issue) => `Virheellinen numeromäärä: Saatiin ${issue.received}`,


Of course "numeromäärä" is technically correct, but as it's not a well-known concept, it gives a pause when reading. My first instinct was that it was "lukumäärä" spelled wrong. I'd write "Virheellinen numeroiden määrä" instead.

I think it is supposed to error when it is not a digit (so when it is not 0-9). "Virheellinen numeroiden määrä" would be confusing as well.. this is a tricky one, but maybe just Virheellinen numero would be sufficient

I don't know the context for this, but I'm hard-pressed to figure out a case where this would make sense, at least to an end-user. Would just "Virheellinen luku" lose too much information?

On the other hand, it feels like most of these texts are aimed at a developer or technical user audience. So perhaps I'm nitpicking here.

For sure meant at a developer or technical user of valibot. I believe if such errors are shown to end users, they can (and probably should) be customized

I'd go with "IP-osoite", but OTOH, the original English is just "IP", so perhaps this is ok.

+    isoDateTime:      (issue) => `Virheellinen päivämäärä-aika: Saatiin ${issue.received}`,


"Päivämäärä-aika" is not Finnish. Perhaps "ajanhetki" or "ajankohta".

"Päivämäärä-aika" is not Finnish. Perhaps "ajanhetki" or "ajankohta".

But it is descriptive of the technical concept though, as isoDateTime as "iso-ajanhetki" or "iso-ajankohta" doesn't mean anything. Or how would you differentiate it from isoDate?

Virheellinen päivämäärämerkintä and Virheellinen päivämäärä-aikamerkintä would be pretty close to the concept

The product of date (päivämäärä) and a time of day (kellonaika) is a datetime (ajanhetki).

Of course there is some ambiguity if it's local or associated with a time-zone. But the same ambiguity is present in the English version.

Anyway, I've never seen the word "päivämäärä-aika" in Finnish, and it feels like clumsy anglicism.

But go do whatever you feel is best. I'm just giving my 5 cents and you're free to ignore that if I seem too pedantic. I don't wish to force anything upon you, just giving feedback from one perspective.

feels like clumsy anglicism

Like most programming terms translated to Finnish 😅

Your perspective is ofc valued - and you are correct about this part:

The product of date (päivämäärä) and a time of day (kellonaika) is a datetime (ajanhetki)

Virheellinen ISO-päivämäärä and Virheellinen ISO-päivämäärä- ja aika I guess would be most descriptive but no longer mirrors en.ts

Virheellinen ISO-päivämäärä- ja aika

Isn't the hyphen in the wrong place here? That would imply that we have a prefix of a compound word. Like "koiran- ja kissanruokaa" is short for "koiranruokaa and kissanruokaa".

But perhaps "Virheellinen ISO-päivämäärä ja -aika" would work.

Virheellinen ISO-päivämäärä- ja aika

Yes, it actually is and this is correct.

Thanks for feedback, I made most of the suggested changes, and also changed "osio" to "esine" and "turvallinen kokonaisluku" to "turvallinen numero"

Sorry to not catch this earlier, but Valibots' item is an item of an array. In Finnish an array is taulukko and its item is an alkio, not osio or esine.

komu · 2025-09-30T05:38:31Z

also changed "osio" to "esine" and "turvallinen kokonaisluku" to "turvallinen numero"

This is wrong. "Numero" means "digit" and not "number". The correct translation for "number" is "luku". These often get mixed up because "number" and "numero" are such similar words.

fabian-hiller · 2025-10-12T01:10:53Z

I will probably merge this PR in 1 to 2 weeks. I am currently focused on Formisch a few other things.

This PR is still on my list. Sorry for the delay.
