instance method
translate
Ruby on Rails edge
Since v3.0.20Signature
translate(key, **options)
Delegates to I18n.translate.
When the key or the :scope option starts with a period, it will be scoped by the current controller and action. So if you call translate(".foo") from PeopleController#index, it will convert the call to I18n.translate("people.index.foo"); calling translate("bar", scope: ".foo") converts to I18n.translate("bar", scope: "people.index.foo"). This makes it less repetitive to translate many keys within the same controller / action and gives you a simple framework for scoping them consistently. The key takes precedence: if the key itself starts with a period, the :scope option’s own leading period is left as-is rather than expanded, preserving the pre-existing behavior for calls like translate(".bar", scope: ".foo").
