Context info for translation project expressions

    When I saw that a lot of expressions used on WP.com were not yet translated into my own language, I was motivated to start translating. I entered the Translation page, and started the Random ride. However, I quickly realized that some expressions are very hard to properly translate without the _context_. A single word, without the page or menu it appears in, can mean different things.

    It came to my mind that it would be great to have a sample of where and how the expression appears. I know this requires a lot of work, but that work would pay dividends multiple times, because it would speed up and improve the quality of the individual translation projects, and that would help open up WP.com to more people around the world.
