Bug Description

The "top bar" settings page apparently translate "day of week" into "工作日", while that means "working day". Correct translation should be "星期”。

This is a tiny bug and easy to fix. I hope triagers can explain how users can help fix these translation errors, hopefully directly on launchpad.

System Info:

Ubuntu 23.04
GNOME Tweaks 42.beta
GNOME Shell 44.0 （ubuntu 模式）
GTK 3.24.37

Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.

Everyone can contribute to translations and help fix issues. If you go to
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lunar/+source/gnome-tweaks/+pots/gnome-tweaks the current translation statuses for different languages. There's a couple of variations of Chinese, but I think I found the string in simplified as an example:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lunar/+source/gnome-tweaks/+pots/gnome-tweaks/zh_CN/120/+translate
Here, anyone can suggestions or corrections. On the bottom of the page you also see the translation team responsible for reviewing and approving translations. Hope this helps :)

This should preferably be fixed upstream, since that's where the incorrect translation origins.

(But changing it in LP only would make a difference in Ubuntu 23.10.)

For upstream fixes, I have corrected the translation and submitted it via https://l10n.gnome.org/vertimus/gnome-tweaks/master/po/zh_CN/ .

For Ubuntu (which is unrelated to upstream GNOME and will only affect Ubuntu translation), the fix is applied at https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lunar/+source/gnome-tweaks/+pots/gnome-tweaks/zh_CN/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=Weekday .
