The strings come from debian / partman-efi (see below). Most of our translations come from Debian, and it would reduce amount of translations we have if we diverge from debian on this one. All references are attached below. Can you please open a bug report in debian against partman-efi package with proposed consistent naming for all of these?

The boot loader then loads the operating system from that same partition. An EFI partition has a FAT16 file system formatted on it and the bootable flag set. Most installations place the EFI partition on the first primary partition of the same hard disk that holds the root file system.
