1.
Do we have to have these two strings separated? Can we please have
them as one string? Then translation errors or ambiguities are less
likely to occur.

Hello Clytie,

Is this really the only instance of difficult-to-translate strings? Cool.
I haven't gone through the text to clean that stuff up. Meanwhile,
please consider translating the thing as one string and splitting it
someplace in the middle. :)

Thanks - Bruce
