            Bug ID: 34900
           Summary: The translation of the string "The " should depend on
                    context
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: 23.05
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5 - low

The string "The " is present 
- 22 times (in 23.05 version) in
koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/about.tt for different uses :
"The [...] Athens County Public Libraries"  => singular
"The [...] jQuery Validation Plugin"
"The [...] controls for column visiblity in DataTables"  => plural 
etc

- and 1 time in
koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/members/members-update.tt in that
string : 
"The [strong]Gone no address[strong] flag is set for this patron."

In Pootle, all these occurences are grouped. This is a nonsense because in many
languages "The" must be translated by different articles (ex in french le / la
/ les) , and for the last example, in french we must translate "the" by "le
flag"

Can it be fixed, in Pootle or in Koha's code?
