Malayalam translation: matplotlib — native-speaker calibration review

[mmcky]

Machine translation of matplotlib for native-speaker review — Phase 2 of QuantEcon/action-translation#189. Merging this PR lands the translation including any fixes committed during review, so review comments here improve the real site directly.

For the reviewer: please comment on any line you would change — English that should be Malayalam, Malayalam that should be English, a wrong case-suffix, awkward phrasing, or the same term handled differently in two places. Headings, code cells and transliteration are already machine-verified (all headings byte-identical, code untouched, zero transliterations) — no need to proofread those. Every comment resolves to exactly one of: a glossary entry, a rule change in the translation tool, or accepted-as-is with our reasoning replied on the thread.

Provenance: source QuantEcon/lecture-python-programming@5816589 · model claude-sonnet-5 · action-translation@main with the register rules + glossary v0.2.0 derived from the reviewer packet · produced by harness run https://github.com/QuantEcon/test-translation-sync/actions/runs/30783374970 and adopted here byte-exact.

Pull request overview

Adds the Malayalam translation of the matplotlib lecture (Phase 2 calibration review), preserving the notebook structure / headings and keeping code cells unchanged while translating the narrative text for publication on the site.

Changes:

• Introduces a new MyST/Jupytext Markdown lecture for Matplotlib in Malayalam.
• Translates explanatory prose and instructional text while retaining technical/code blocks and existing section structure.

• “introductory treatments-ൽ / example” എന്നീ വാക്കുകൾ മിശ്രിതമായതിനാൽ മലയാള സമാനപദങ്ങൾ ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നത് ലേഖനശൈലി സ്ഥിരതയാക്കും.

introductory treatments-ൽ കാണാവുന്ന തരത്തിലുള്ള ഒരു ലളിതമായ example ഇതാ

lectures/matplotlib.md:87

• “limited-ഉം un-Pythonic-ഉം” എന്നത് ഇംഗ്ലീഷ് പദങ്ങൾ_SUFFIX ചേർത്ത് എഴുതിയതാണ്; വായനാസൗകര്യത്തിന് മലയാള രൂപത്തിലാക്കുന്നത് നല്ലത്.

ഇത് ലളിതവും സൗകര്യപ്രദവുമാണ്, പക്ഷേ ഒരു പരിധിവരെ limited-ഉം un-Pythonic-ഉം ആണ്.

lectures/matplotlib.md:91

• ഈ വാക്യത്തിൽ “explicit / run / line” തുടങ്ങിയ ഇംഗ്ലീഷ് പദങ്ങൾ മിശ്രിതമായി വന്നിട്ടുണ്ട്; പ്രധാന വാക്കുകൾ മലയാളത്തിലാക്കുന്നത് ടെക്സ്റ്റ് സ്വാഭാവികമാക്കും.

Python programmers സാധാരണയായി കൂടുതൽ explicit ആയ ഒരു programming style ഇഷ്ടപ്പെടുന്നു (ഒരു code block-ൽ `import this` run ചെയ്ത് രണ്ടാമത്തെ line നോക്കുക).

lectures/matplotlib.md:97

• “corresponding” എന്നത് ഇംഗ്ലീഷിൽ തന്നെ നിലനില്ക്കുന്നു; മലയാളം സമാനപദം ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നത് കൂടുതൽ സ്വാഭാവികമാകും.

മുൻപത്തെ figure-ന് corresponding ആയ code object-oriented API ഉപയോഗിച്ച് ഇതാ

A note on the automated comments above — they are not from our translation tool, and none of them needs your attention.

GitHub Copilot reviews every pull request in this organisation automatically. It is a general-purpose code reviewer with no knowledge of this edition's translation policy, so on a Malayalam lecture it mostly argues against the policy — repeatedly suggesting that technical terms kept in English should be rendered in Malayalam. That is exactly the over-translation this edition is designed to avoid, and in one case it proposed replacing recommend ചെയ്യുന്നു with ശുപാർശ ചെയ്യുന്നു, which inverts the light-verb rule you specified.

We have checked every one of its comments against the English source and replied to each on its own thread, then marked them resolved so they collapse out of your view. The breakdown for this lecture:

Copilot's comments	What we found
3 comments, plus 4 it suppressed	All seven ask for retained English to be translated — “lectures”, “figures”, corresponding, explicit, and the pinned glossary term array. One proposes replacing the prescribed recommend ചെയ്യുന്നു light-verb construction with ശുപാർശ ചെയ്യുന്നു, which is the substitution your rule exists to prevent

This lecture drew no valid findings at all — every comment was an over-translation suggestion.

None of its comments identified a translation defect.

What we are asking you for is unchanged: comment on any line you would change — English that should be Malayalam, Malayalam that should be English, a wrong case-suffix, awkward phrasing, or the same term handled differently in two places. Yours is the review that counts here; please disregard the collapsed automated threads entirely.
