Hopefully Spanish translators see the bug report and can react accordingly... I'm not sure about this change... According to the Royal Spanish Academy dictionary: * `cifra' is a noun that means `Writing in which conventional points, digits and letters are used, and that can only be understood by knowing its key' (Escritura en que se usan signos, guarismos o letras convencionales, y que solo puede comprenderse conociendo la clave). * `cifrado' is an adjective that means `Written in cipher' (Escrito en cifra). These strings appear in KDE3's kdebase/kcmcrypto.po file, which is maintained by Jaime Robles. Hola, Here at Spain nobody seems to use cifra in reference of ciphering being cifrado and its verb "cifrar" more common (despite of being related to cifra) we dont say 'use cifra para conectar a la web' (i used ciphering (encription) to connect to the web) este docuentop está en cifra (this doc is chiphered (encripted)) RAE dictionary last edition (Real Academia de la Lengua) defines cifra as: cifra. (Del b. lat. cifra, este del ár. hisp. ṣífr, y este del ár. clás. ṣifr, vacío). 1. f. Número dígito. (!!) 2. f. Signo con que se representa este número. (!!) 3. f. Escritura en que se usan signos, guarismos o letras convencionales, y que solo puede comprenderse conociendo la clave. 4. f. Enlace de dos o más letras, generalmente las iniciales de nombres y apellidos, que como abreviatura se emplea en sellos, marcas, etc. 5. f. abreviatura (‖ representación de una palabra con solo algunas de sus letras). 6. f. abreviatura (‖ palabra así representada). 7. f. Cantidad de dinero. 8. f. Modo vulgar de escribir música por números. 9. f. Suma y compendio, emblema. en ~. 1. loc. adv. Oscura y misteriosamente. 2. loc. adv. Con brevedad, en compendio. □ V. guerra de cifras As U can see most of the terms are in reference to digits and number writing bein ciphering aspects of this word not in common use. Only you can see the cripto aspect of the word when you find "cifrado" As now RAE dict says:: cifrado, da. (Del part. de cifrar). (Partciple of cifrar) 1. adj. Escrito en cifra. □ V. "bajo cifrado" So cifra is not the word you'll find on most translations of common cripto software on Spain. We use "cifrado 3des" nor "cifra 3des" Perhaps cifra is more apropiate as a other Spanish localized version (South America and other spanish speaking countries) not the way an modern Spaniard speaks today. Other posible election is to use 'encriptación' ( encriptar/desencriptar as crypt/decrypt ) But i no have dude about this inapropiate use at least here in Spain. Ill hope this will convice you to do this change.
