Comment (by Otto42):

 > For better user experience, we should allow l10n teams to translate
 these strings in Rosetta. Due to different grammatical cases, the language
 name would probably need a separate context for these links.

 Looking at this now, and for the general case of translating these two
 phrases, I'm guessing that something as simple as:

 {{{
 WordPress is also available in %s.
 }}}

 Where %s is the link and the language name... is probably not good enough.
 Yes, no? Special cases?

 What about something like:

 {{{
 WordPress is also available in %sEnglish%s.
 }}}

 Where we replace the %s's with the A and /A bits, so that the translators
 can move the link as needed?

 What's the correct way to make these phrases so that it can work with all
 languages and be translatable properly? Input from the polyglots team may
 be needed.
