Home 按钮

许多产品上的特定键并不汉化,ipad或mp3机身上的键保留英文原文反倒容易让用户理解,如果是界面说明书,home button 有“返回主页”“返回主目录”的意思。

主屏幕按键

iPhone 的 “home button” 官方翻译是 “主屏幕按键”(home screen 是主屏幕)。虽然原始内容是说 Android 的手机,但都是说两种触屏智能机的都共有的特定按钮,我觉得只要可以做到前后统一直接借用苹果的翻译也问题不大。

主页按钮(一般软件);主屏幕按键(手机上应用程序)

Microsoft 语言门户(很权威的资源)上对“home button”的翻译全部统一是“主页按钮”(中文简体)/“首頁按鈕”(中文繁体)(见以下两个链接,请注意这些翻译都是应用于电脑上操作的应用程序,不适用于手机上的应用程序)。
手机上的应用程序,我认为chrislau提供的“主屏幕按键”是正确的。我自己也翻译过BlackBerry智能手机的许多手册内容,客户提供的TM里面Home都译为“主屏幕”,bottom也是全译为“按键”。在加上chrislau提供的链接,此处比较有把握。
