Well, I am not familiar with Qt development in Python, but in C++ world,
there is necessary to initialise translator before showing QML view...
Try to look to these lines:
https://github.com/Karry/osmscout-sailfish/blob/master/src/OSMScout.cpp#L147
// install translator
QTranslator translator;
QLocale locale;
if (translator.load(locale.name(),
SailfishApp::pathTo("translations").toLocalFile())) {
qDebug() << "Install translator for locale "
<< locale << "/" << locale.name();
app->installTranslator(&translator);
}else{
qWarning() << "Can't load translator for locale"
<< locale << "/" << locale.name() <<
"(" << SailfishApp::pathTo("translations").toLocalFile() << ")";
}
