[Koha-translate] Homonym string help

[Paul Poulain]

Salut Caroline,

We faced this problem a few years ago, with the word "issue" : issue of 
a serial (fascicule) and checkout (prêt)

the only solution to this problem is to disambiguate the English by 
choosing a different word for each meaning. And changing the English 
strings.

And you can't do that.
