Fuzzy translation
163+
-----------------
164+
165+
Fuzzy translation is a translation marked by comment "fuzzy" to let you
166+
know that the translation is out of date because the "msgid" has been
167+
changed. A fuzzy translation will be ignored when compiling using "msgfmt".
168+
Fuzzy translation can be marked by hands, but for most cases they are
169+
marked automatically when running "msgmerge" to update your "XX.po" file.
170+
171+
After fixing the corresponding translation, you must remove the "fuzzy"
172+
tag in the comment.
