Update Fenix New Search string #8015

Closed Delphine closed 1 year ago

Delphine commented 1 year ago

String is here. Localizers and l10n PMs have noticed that the string without UI context is confusing, and also won't work for many non English locales: indeed, "This time search:" + "search engine" will be different for a lot of languages than "This time search:" + "tabs" or + "history" (see UI attached)

Given the UI, it's not possible to accommodate for two strings (so, one for "search engines" and one for "the rest")

Current source string: This time search: Proposed string: This time search in: (would sound more natural)

I know there is a size constraint to this string - please note that most sentences in other languages are twice the size of English (it's the case for French, German and Italian for example)
