GENERAL

Be sure to reference the CommCare Rosetta Stone for some common translations
Error: The translation should start with an empty line. Press the "Enter" or "Return" key before the translation text.
Do not change anything in curly brackets {xyz }

French

Capitalize all major words not small articles
If first letter in the string is capital make sure your French suggestion is also capital
- If there is an article in between such as Remplacer l'icône, you can keep the first letter a lowercase
Do not use infinitive form for command verbs. E.g. Télécharger should be Téléchargez
Do not translate CommCare branded features into French, such as CommCare Exchange. Keep this as CommCare Exchange, pas CommCare Échange
