I am learning japanese and I would like to be able to switch between english and japanese input while keeping an english interface. How would I achieve that? I am using KDE, by the way.
In the Kiten documentation I read that pressing Shift+Space would enable japanese input (built-in in Kiten, according to the documentation). But that does not seem to work in my system.
I need to be able to switch between English and Japanese text when typing on my computer but I have no idea how to. I figured it out on both Windows and Mac but Ubuntu is giving me some trouble. I figure IBus is where I'm supposed to be going but even though I selected Japanese, it just isn't working.

Is there anyway to keep English menus/titles while Japanese(or any other language) input method with SCIM is enabled ?

I have some music in another language, but when I open the songs in Banshee, their song names just come up as weird characters (like μ).I went to [System --> Administration --> Language Support] and installed support for that language, but the songs still come up like μ. (But in Nautilus, their proper names show).
I know the solution is to change my whole system language to that language, but I don't want to do that, as I am not very fluent in it. Is there any way to enable support for that language while keeping English as the language used to display my desktop?
I recently installed language packs for Japanese and changed my system language to it, too. The problem is, now that I try to go back to English, the locale doesn't change back, only the menus are in english. "Apply system wide" in the Language Support didn't do anything; Firefox is in japanese too. Here is my locale output:
LANG=ja_JP.utf8
LANGUAGE=en_US:en
LC_CTYPE="ja_JP.utf8"

View 3 Replies View RelatedI use Lenny 2.6.26-1-686 and kde 3.5.10I installed scim/skim and a great load of related packages and some fonts. I changed a lot of configuration files, so many times that I'm at a loss about them right now. Skim is starting with kde, and an icon is showing at the lower right corner. If I press Alt+F2 to run another app though, this icon disappears. I configured skim at the meny "Main Toolbar Configuration" to "always show" [3]. So I can still configure it from this Toolbar that is always at the desktop. But I can't really use the programme.
Well, I'm trying to type romanized Pali fonts (Pali is the language of Buddhist scriptures).When I run openoffice, for instance, and try to select the "input method" there's only English/European; Raw Code; and Keyboard for alternatives.I created the file "/usr/share/m17n/sa-translit.mim" with a map for transliteration of the special characters. I learned how to do this here:The first thing I noted is that when I pasted the content of the file to the terminal, some characters appeared as "blank squares". So I guess my system can't find any fonts installed to print these characters. But I thought I had installed the fonts that supported them (Gentium, Dejavu Sans and others). I must be missing something.
At the K-Menu, if I go to "Settings" -> "SCIM Imput Method Setup" it doesn't work any more. No window opens. At first, when I was starting to try to make it work, I could open this setup window and the "sa-translit.mim" file was there under the "Other" category (but it didn't really work, I don't know why). Now this setup doesn't run anymore, and at the "Configure" window for Skim I have only "English/European" and "Raw Code" at "Global Setup"-> "Other".But I have many things at /usr/share/m17n/ which should be showing here, I guess.
My /etc/scim/global
SupportedUnicodeLocales = en_GB.utf8
/DefaultPanelProgram = /usr/bin/scim-panel-kde

I have installed Slackware 13 with language support and run it in init 4 mode (GUI, automatically start to KDE). When logout the menu is in arabic or some symbols that I don't understand. I try to set locale to English, but still the same symbols appear.I fix it. How can I delete this thread?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've tried installing both ibus-anthy and ibus-mozc in Jessie but I still cannot input Japanese.
By contrast, In Wheezy, when using anthy for example, I can see ibus preferences icon where I can configure ibus and anthy. This doesn't show up in Jessie.
I was curious if this is the standard behaviour... I had all my F12 system in spanish, including Firefox. But now after I upgraded to F13, Firefox switched to english (the rest of my system remains in spanish).So, is this supposed to happen or something went wrong? How could I fix it?

For that reason, I need a "Spell Check" and be able to use accents in spanish and english using my email (most of time Gmail) and other programs like OpenOffice (docs,etc.). There are a couple of post but none of them can solve my problem. My OS is Ubuntu 10.10.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm from the US, and we spell things a little differently here. For example: there's no "u" in "honor" here. I'd be pleased if I could make it so that spellcheck quits questioning my use of the letter "z" and lack of the letter "u" all the time.Any way I can do it? I'm using 10.10, if that makes a difference.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhere to find a plug-in for Firefox that supports the following functions:
- Showing translation of a word by a simple shortcut (like Shift + Right click).
- Allowing to modify list of dictionaries (by giving links to web dictionaries).
- Storing the words into personal vocabulary for later reference.
- Allowing to type in the word for translation.
There is a large list of plug-ins for Firefox that have some of the functionality above, but after quite a long time I wasn't able to find one that satisfies all of the requirements.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI know probably not so many people here need a English dictionary on Fedora box. But it's worth to documented since the other guides are Ubuntu specific and not usable on Fedora. Due to the old Flash 9 embedded in the Linux version of ldoce5, various problems happen. I came across the following from F11 to F13:
1. Chunky sound (F11)
2. Hang down the pulseaudio server (F12)
3. Completely silent (F13)
I tried installing the legacy libflashsupport with pulseaudio patch however it was deprecated from F10. The simplest and probably ultimate solution is to install the alsa-oss wrapper to re-direct the sound stream to alsa emulated by pulseaudio.
