First, it'll catch MissingTranslationData exceptions # and turn them into inline spans that contains the missing key, such that you can see in a view what is missing where. # # Second, it'll scope the key by the current partial if the key starts with a period. So if you call translate(".foo") from the # people/index.html.erb template, you'll actually be calling I18n.translate("people.index.foo").
