KHangMan in English in KDE 3.5 |
Description
KHangman is the classical hangman game. The child should guess a word letter by letter. At each miss, the picture of a hangman appears. After 10 tries, if the word is not guessed, the game is over and the answer is displayed.
The words are nouns and available in twenty-four languages at the moment: Czech, Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Irish (Gaelic), Italian, Norwegian (Bokmål), Norwegian (Nynorsk), Polish, Portuguese, Spanish , Slovenian, Serbian Latin , Serbian Cyrillic, Slovak, Swedish, Tajik and Turkish. The program will detect which languages are present and enable them. In KDE 3.2 you have all the languages but in KDE 3.3.x and in the next KDE 3.4, you will get only english plus the data in the language you use in kde provided it exists. You will also be able to easily download other languages via the Get New Stuff dialog (3 clicks and your data will be installed).
There are 4 levels per language: easy, medium, hard and animals which contains only animals nouns. But you can add your own file in the $KDEDIR/share/apps/khangman/language_code folder and the program will detect it and add it in the Levels drop down box.
If you would like to contribute to data in your own language, you can now do so very easily. Please see the Add new language page here for more details, thanks to Stefan Asserhäll.
Credits for the data in different languages are on the Languages page.
