Question

If a model has an attribute named “unit” for example, but in your views you refer to this attribute as “unit price”, but when you do validation, error messages default to “unit”, how do I modify this to say “unit price”?

Answer 1

Use localization to set the “English” name of your attribute. You can set both the singular and plural names:

en:
  activerecord:
    attributes:
      product:
        unit:
          one:   Unit price
          other: Unit prices
