    module TranslationHelper
      # Delegates to I18n#translate but also performs three additional functions.
      # 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 <tt>translate(".foo")</tt> from the
      # <tt>people/index.html.erb</tt> template, you'll actually be calling
      # <tt>I18n.translate("people.index.foo")</tt>. This makes it less repetitive
      # to translate many keys within the same partials and gives you a simple framework
      # for scoping them consistently. If you don't prepend the key with a period,
      # nothing is converted.
      #
      # Third, it'll mark the translation as safe HTML if the key has the suffix
      # "_html" or the last element of the key is the word "html". For example,
      # calling translate("footer_html") or translate("footer.html") will return
      # a safe HTML string that won't be escaped by other HTML helper methods. This
      # naming convention helps to identify translations that include HTML tags so that
      # you know what kind of output to expect when you call translate in a template.
