- grub_printf (_("\
+ grub_printf_ (N_("\
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB\n\
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible\n\
device/file completions.%s ]\n\n"),
We already spoke about this string
- grub_printf (_("Possible %s are:"), what);
+ grub_printf_ (N_("Possible %s are:"), what);
This kind of string usage is untranslatable since when translator encounters
word "files" by itself he has no idea of its role in sentence so can't choose
apropriate case in language that have one. It has to be split into
"Possible files are:"
"Possible devices are:"
And so on
