Internationalization, localization, translation

[nfreear]

Please help by correcting and adding translations ~ TEMPLATE.

Like any software translation, the TEMPLATE contains a number of placeholders -- places where bits of dynamic/ changeable text will be inserted. Placeholders should not be translated -- instead leave them embedded in your translation in the appropriate place. The placeholders are denoted by curly braces, for example, {y} is for year, {g} is for "Global Accessibility Awareness Day" (or its translation), and so on.

There is also HTML markup, for example, <a {at}>..</a>, which should be preserved intact.

As there only five strings to be translated at present, you can do the work in any software you feel comfortable with (Google Doc, MS Word, a comment in this GitHub issue ...)
