[jira] [Comment Edited] (OFBIZ-4906) More german translations
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4906?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13398450#comment-13398450 ]

-------------------------------------------------------------
To make what I'm proposing clearer, I can use a simple example.
An OFBiz developer wants to create a UI label for the word "second" and creates a UI label with the key "CommonSecond". In English, the word "second" has two meanings: ordinal and temporal (after first, and 1/60th of a minute). Since only one UI label exists, it is used for both meanings. But in other languages, they might be different words - so they require different UI label keys. A better approach would be to have two UI label keys: "CommonSecondOrdinal" and "CommonSecondTemporal". Both keys would be translated to English as "second" - but other languages would be free to use different words.
