Changing "and" from Bibilography to my own language

Post by templateuser »

Best regards!

I am using the template for my thesis,and it is great, except it adds "and" in between authors in the bibilography. I need to either have it without and or be able to translate and to local language.

Where can I do that?

I am using MiKTeX 2.9 and TeXstudio 2.6.2

Changing "and" from Bibilography to my own language

Post by Vel »

Hi,

Most likely this "and" is in the .bib file itself which BibTeX is printing to the bibliography. For example, in the template, one of the references is:

Code: Select all

@article{Reference3,
    Abstract = {Operating a laser diode in an extended cavity which provides frequency-selective feedback is a very effective method of reducing the laser's linewidth and improving its tunability. We have developed an extremely simple laser of this type, built from inexpensive commercial components with only a few minor modifications. A 780~nm laser built to this design has an output power of 80~mW, a linewidth of 350~kHz, and it has been continuously locked to a Doppler-free rubidium transition for several days.},
    Author = {A. S. Arnold and J. S. Wilson and M. G. Boshier},
    Journal = {Review of Scientific Instruments},
    Month = {March},
    Number = {3},
    Numpages = {4},
    Pages = {1236--1239},
    Title = {A Simple Extended-Cavity Diode Laser},
    Volume = {69},
    Url = {http://link.aip.org/link/?RSI/69/1236/1},
    Year = {1998}}
Notice the "Author = {A. S. Arnold and J. S. Wilson and M. G. Boshier},". If you don't want that "and", you can change it in the bib file or get your reference manager to export the bib file without it.
