# Chinese (Singapore) GTE request

Hello Polyglots,

May I request to be a GTEGeneral Translation Editor A General Translation Editor(
often referred to as GTE) is a person, who has global access to validate strings
on **all projects for a specific locale.** for Chinese (Singapore), [#zh_sg](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/?locale=zh_SG)?

Currently the localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language
code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico.
A list of all locales supported by WordPress in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/)
is empty. As Chinese (Singapore) is a regional variant of Chinese (China), at the
very least, I will be starting off with: 1. importing from Chinese (China) locale
for WordPress coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The
Core Development Team builds WordPress. (assuming Chinese (China) is not the root
for Chinese (Singapore). [[GitHub comment on requesting of change of root]](https://github.com/GlotPress/GlotPress-WP/issues/226#issuecomment-314841552)).
2. including a glossary of words that are unique to Chinese (Singapore) variant.

I don’t know how to categorize this locale request, whether new or inactive (since
it is already [listed](https://translate.wordpress.org/)), but here are the details
of the locale, if it was not provided before:

Locale: zh_sg
 Country code: SG Plural forms: nplurals=1; plural=0; Language native
name: 新加坡华语 Sub-domain: zh_sg.wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site
where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download
the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location
for community conversations and organization. [https://wordpress.org/](https://wordpress.org/)

I am currently contributing to Chinese (China) translation as a PTEProject Translation
Editor A Project Translation Editor (often referred to as PTE) is a person, who 
has access to validate strings on a specific project (for example BuddyPress, WooCommerce
or Twenty Fourteen) for one specific locale. A project translation editor can approve
strings that are added by translation contributors. Per project translation, editors
are appointed by a [general translation editor](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/glossary/#general-translation-editor)
after a [request by the project author](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/rosetta/theme-plugin-directories/#requesting-new-translation-editors)
or by the contributors themselves..
