Offer: Spanish translation of the Orange interface (3.40.0) #7352

Hello,

I teach medical informatics in the Hematology specialty program at Universidad Indoamérica (Ecuador), and my students use Orange in class. To make it easier for them, we prepared a Spanish (Latin American) translation of the Orange 3.40.0 interface, and we would like to offer it to the project.

What it covers

• orange-canvas-core: 467 of 469 strings
• orange-widget-base: 117 of 117
• orange3: 3,782 of 4,138 (the rest are intentionally left in English: widget names, algorithm names, search keywords, and strings that are identical in Spanish)

How it was made and checked

• A machine translation (a local open-weights LLM) with a fixed glossary and style rules (formal "usted", sentence case).
• An automatic validator for every string: placeholders ({}, %s, %(name)s), HTML tags, keyboard accelerators (&), line breaks, and leading/trailing whitespace are preserved; translated f-strings compile and reference the same variables; pl() forms use "singular|plural" where Spanish needs it.
• 65 manual corrections, plus a test that instantiates all 105 widgets with the translation, with no errors.
• It still needs a review by a second native speaker, which we would welcome.

Format
It is ready as Trubar message files, i18n/es/msgs.jaml, for the three repositories at the tags that ship with Orange 3.40.0 (orange3 3.40.0, orange-widget-base 4.27.0, orange-canvas-core 0.2.7), together with the es entry for each trubar-config.yaml.

• The structure follows i18n/si/msgs.jaml; every entry marked false there is kept false.
• trubar translate builds all three without errors.
• The resulting Spanish.json matches, string by string, the translation we tested inside Orange.
• Only one multi-line entry is still null: the template of the About dialog, in orange-canvas-core.

Questions

1. Would you accept a Spanish translation?
2. Should I open pull requests with i18n/es/msgs.jaml against master (after running trubar collect there), or would you prefer the files for 3.40.0 as they are?
3. Is there anything you require from translation maintainers, for example keeping it updated for new releases?

I am happy to maintain it for future versions.

Thank you for Orange; it works very well for teaching clinicians.
