Please split this string.
We have different translation form for dialog title and radio button.
Thanks.

For my own curiosity, can you explain why that's the case (and which language needs this)?
Comment 5 Dušan 2013-06-19 23:21:25 UTC 
Slovak language(one of the hardest languages in europe) and many other i think...all is about that we (slovak translation team) are taking care about very good and consistent translation...
Comment 6 Bastien Nocera 2013-06-21 10:11:39 UTC 
That really doesn't answer my question.
Comment 7 Piotr Drąg 2015-02-10 16:16:36 UTC 
In Polish (and probably most Slavic languages) we also use different forms of the same words in the UI. For example, for a menu entry "Browse for more pictures" we have "Przeglądaj więcej obrazów" (imperative verb), while for the same original window title we have "Przeglądanie innych obrazów" - a verbal noun (please ignore więcej-innych for this example.) And as Dušan said, it makes the UI feel more polished and professional.
Comment 8 Ondrej Holy 2015-02-13 15:05:01 UTC 
Thanks for the explanation, however the file photo-dialog.ui was removed (Bug 708286), so the patch is useless now...
