Description

I am a Spanish user of moodle.

I wonder why the phrase that appears in the functions notify and error is mostly directly written in English. If it were used the function get_string instead of the English phrase, the errors would appear in the correct language.

The users will be shocked with a red box in the screen and a lot of them won't know what it says because they don't know English!

It is not very difficult, I think.

Thanks!

Any errors that STUDENTS would see must be translated ... if you find any that are not please then file them as separate bugs.

The other errors that admins see (or are shown when Moodle is broken) are ahown in English because there are so many of them (many thousands) ... the load on translators and the system would be very heavy.

Some day this will be fixed, yes ... perhaps in Moodle 2.x
