Contribution Specifications
- Translation Overview
On this contribution I worked on five different folders: intl.md, punycode.md, timers.md, tracing.md and v8.md. Throughout all of them there was a new term that has not yet been defined.
- I/O: "In computing, input/output or I/O (or, informally, io or IO) is the communication between an information processing system, such as a computer, and the outside world, possibly a human or another information processing system. Inputs are the signals or data received by the system and outputs are the signals or data sent from it. The term can also be used as part of an action; to "perform I/O" is to perform an input or output operation" (Wikipedia, 2018).
Example of the term used in the translation:
-- Schedules the "immediate" execution of the <0>callback</0> after I/O events'
callbacks.
Also, I would like to share something new I learned on this contribution. Before, I used to think the word 'character' was supposed to be translated as 'caracter' in Spanish. However, due to a correction made by my LM @marugy99, I discovered that the correct translation would be 'carácter', with an accent on the letter 'a'. The corrections were made and from now on I will no longer make that mistake.
