[ECODP-dev] FW: JIRA-OP (ODP-274) Create new string in Transifex for sentence: "Data Portal contains 6093 datasets that you can browse, learn about and download."

[Darwin Peltan]

Hi Agnieszka,

You don't need to stick to the structure of the English sentence. In
Transifex you can change the sentence completely as needed for each
language and just place the variables exactly where they should appear
within the sentence. Therefore I'm not quite clear how this doesn't give
you the flexibility you need?

If there is something I've missed then we can obviously change to option 1
or 2. Just let us know what text you'd like on the ticket and we can update
Transifex.

Best,

Darwin
