[Localization] Questions

[jasmine udea]

Dear Sirs

As I promised, here come more questions: 

Fructose. Write.po
String 32. Block text - what this block is? is it imperative mood ordering to block the text or is it a block, a box, some box shape of the text or anything else?

Fructose. 

Turtleart.  
String 571  touch  - does it mean a light touch of something by something? The Spanish translation says "Boton" -/button/ why not key? so please clarify, 

string 572 ultrasonic  - The Spanish translation says distance... I guess that's calculating the distance using ultrasonic, isn't it?

581 brick  - Please give me some idea about the real shape of this brick, is it tree dimensional or duo dimensional object? is it the piece we use to create the program for the turtle?


592 turn motor\n rotations - the word turn  what does it mean here? One turn or rotation? 

606 reset motor - Is reset used for start motor or reset the program for the motor? (in Spanish it says "start", I have doubts)

607 Reset the motor counter -Start the counter or reset the data for the counter?
622 set light - turn on light or set the data for the light 
635 pin mode - What does pin stand here for? is it a word or abbreviation? 



thanks again

jasmine

Thanks. This helps me to determine where I need to add additional

It is a noun, as in engine torque.

a part of a mechanism, as in a gear in a watch works.

 right word.

Not sure how to explain this one. You can vary the friction along the
surface from no friction to very sticky.

jump back (coefficient of restitution)

It means, is the object fixed in its position or able to move (dynamic).
