Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:34602 Gergely Kalmár]:
 > Currently gettext simply falls back to inserting its argument when there
 is no appropriate translation file or when the translation file does not
 contain an appropriate msgid.

 Could you please expand this explanation a bit? I'm not completely sure
 what you mean. If you could provide concrete examples, commands run, etc,
 that will certainly help us triage this ticket report.

 > For this reason it would be preferable if we had the option to fail
 gettext and its variants instead of using a fallback. The only exception
 is if the current language is the same as the LANGUAGE_CODE setting, in
 which case it should be fine to display the argument of gettext as a
 fallback.

 Where would this option be added? as a setting? what would the failure
 look like?

 Without a complete understanding of this report, it may look like this is
 a new feature request? If so, would you mind following
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/bugs-and-
 features/#requesting-features the documented guidelines for requesting
 features]?

 If this is not a feature request, could you provide a minimal django app
 and instructions to reproduce the issue? Closing as needsinfo until we get
 a clearer understanding of the report.

 Thank you!
