            Bug ID: 410392
           Summary: Date localization string can easily break
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: i...@guoyunhe.me
                CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

https://cgit.kde.org/dolphin.git/tree/src/kitemviews/kfileitemmodel.cpp#n2124

The source strings are like:

'Earlier on' MMMM, yyyy

In some languages, translators tend to translate single quotes with ‘’ or don't
use quotes. Then the translation won't be accepted by GetText. Even I have been
translating KDE for seven years, I still made a mistake when translating these
strings.

The code should be rewritten in a way that can be easier understood by
translators.

First you string template is:

Earlier on %1

%1 is the date string you generated from source string:

MMMM, yyyy
