You can find out what strings are available on your system for translation
by using the -D option:
-D A list of all double-quoted strings preceded by $ is printed on
the standard output. These are the strings that are subject to
language translation when the current locale is not C or POSIX.
This implies the -n option; no commands will be executed.
(On my system and some other I could test, that prints nothing).
