#3019 closed defect (bug) (duplicate)

translation of "reply" needs context

Reported by: fiskhandlarn's profile fiskhandlarn Owned by:
Milestone: Priority: normal
Severity: normal Version: 2.5.10
Component: Locale - i18n/l10n Keywords:

Description

bbp_get_reply_to_link() and bbp_get_topic_reply_link() uses "Reply" as a verb (i.e. to reply), whereas bbp_dashboard_widget_right_now() uses "Reply" as nouns (i.e. nr of replies).

The swedish translation for "reply" is different for the verb ("svara") and nouns ("svar"). The current translation (bbpress-sv_SE.po) uses the noun form, thus outputting the edit/reply links with incorrect text.

bbp_get_reply_to_link() and bbp_get_topic_reply_link() could perhaps use _x() instead of __() so that "Reply" can be translated differently?

No problem @fiskhandlarn, Trac is not the greatest UI/UX in the world, we'd rather have a duplicate ticket than no ticket at all :)
