Now that I can see the interface in practice, I think the Transifex’s way of treating resources as collections of strings doesn’t work very well with longer texts logically divided into paragraphs. It’s quite common for a translator to leave a sentence out or reshuffle the sentence order, for example. The Transifex UI doesn’t quite support that. Not to mention that some of these texts need _localizing_ in the more general sense, adapting them for the target country instead of simply translating. So I vote for localizing those resources ad-hoc, just committing them into the repo without any explicit tooling support. And we can keep the ERB markup.\r\n\r\nThe only serious downside I can see is that the translation teams won’t be notified of changes in the base English localization automatically. But I don’t think that’s a show stopper at the moment."}}
