@PPC Many thanks for your effort. The big one is the most important one.
Please read carefully the comment I have written to this elephantine entry: you don’t need to translate from German language, you simply can use English as base in transifex:
— Click on the gear symbol in upper right corner of transifex site when translating.
— Chose Entry “show source string in english (en)”
— From the upcoming menu chose the language English United Kingdom (en_GB), instead of English (en)
Then you will see all source strings in English instead of German, since I have translated them to English language already before uploading.
Only trouble is that transifex can’t handle this correctly on its own. You have to set it up manually as described.
Dealing with different source languages within a project is that very basic stuff, and they (transifex) are not prepared for this, treating all source as universal English (en) only (or another specific language set up at project start)? Well, we have a workaround 🙂
Moreover you will need to activate the “raw” view to see the expressions within arrows, which are hidden in normal transifex view, as well as the correct number of “blanks”. This I have also described in the above mentioned comment, keyword is “editor preferences”.

P.S.: This way you can write your source strings in Portuguese language within your scripts; gettext is able to handle this flawlessly. For me it makes much more sense to have precisely expressed source strings in any language of the world rather than doggerel attempts of non native speaking programmers to express things in English language (I include myself explicitly under this statement).
