[PD] problem with translation : WAS Re: testing some 0.48.0 GUI updates

Probably.

Those strings are working for me. I made a few small edits to the pt_br.po file which I can put in a PR.


> Also, the translation of "init"/"no init" cannot fit in the current spaca available, is the only solution to make this larger for all languages?

I can make it bigger but, at a certain point, we have to choose a max string size. Can you use an abbreviation? My wife had a side job in Denver doing localization testing and said that at a certain point, you just have to limit the string sizes: "init" is already an abbreviation for "initialize."
