Hello,

I am translating those translation "words" in Finnish every now and then. There are often words that cannot be translated. For example "in". It might be handy in many languages like Germand and English but this preposition doesn't even exist in Finnish. I would need to have a longer sentence to be able to translate it in some meaningful way. But for now, there is nothing I can do. What should we do about these?

I don't know the URL. I was just simply browsing the words that need to be translated.

But on which page (forum, groups, ...) did it show up? Or did you used the "only missing tool" in AdminWords?

Yes, I was using that "only missing" tool in admin words. That's why I don't know exactly where it is used.

Mmm... in this case it will be hard to find that string. I suggest to translate in the "translate" modus. (link in the bottom of the page) In this case you see the page context of the translation and you are able to react with your translation in case the layout breaks because of to long strings.

In the "only missing" tool is a lot of stuff which isn't used on the page anymore...
