Spaces
-
Hello,
I love your plugin, simple and powerful !
However there is a small problem with spaces. The need would be to be able to place spaces at the begining or end of a string in translations. As it is, if I begin or end a string with a space, it will not be saved, so the string will be stuck to what comes before of after.
I met this problem several time when translating from French to English : a comma + space is needed in French, but the comma is not correct in English. If the comma + space follows a link, then the full sentence is separated in several strings for translation.
I think it will be easier to undertand the problem with an example.See on this page : https://www.lefer-traductions.com/qui-suis-je/
at the bottom, the phrase :
Master 2 professionnel, industrie de la langue et traduction spécialisée (université de Paris, 2016)
Master 2 professionel is a link, then a comma, then a space, then a new string
On English page, I am obliged to keep the comma, or the following space will disappear, I cannot begin the string with a space, it is not saved.
So as it is, it reads
Professional master’s degree, in technical translation (Université de Paris, 2016)But the comma is superfluous
Well this is not a big matter, but since this a website for a translator, it is important for her to show she knows English language grammar…
Thanks for your attention
