Hi!

Thanks for that! What would be the proper word to use in polish? Imiê or Nazwa?

Best regards,

thats the problem. two NAME variables are supposed to be used in deferent places. one in comment section (Imię) second (i m not sure and i check that later) in categories section (Nazwa). they can t have same translation.

Hi!

Hm, that's a problem. Can't you replace it with a generic "Name" word, which exists in german and english and other languages and can both apply to a people name and a thing name?

Otherwise, we will need to add a new language constant, and then i would need to now where to use "NAME1" and where "NAME2"... :)

Best regards,

there is no polish word with those two meanings. sorry :D

NAME in categories should be "Nazwa"
NAME in comments sholud be "Imię"

but for now "Imię" is more important because page visitors can see it and have to understand it. :D "Nazwa" is in admin panel so it dosen t make such big difference.
