Message property format
# Comments start with hashes
# There are no block comments.
# Blank lines are fine
example=This is an example message that will get translated
example.multiline=This example is so long that I decided to \
make it go over multiple lines. I didn't need to indent \
these lines, I only did it to make it easier to read. \
When this gets translated it will put on a single line.
# HTML attributes will not be translated.
example.html=<div class="brown cow">This is a brown cow</div>
# String building is difficult to translate because context is lost
example.variables=My name is {0} and I like to {1}.
Traslated to French
