In the Rails docs there seem to be different default locations for I18N strings, depending if the I18N-lookup was initiated from a view, model / validation, controller, helper, …, if it’s a label, etc…

How can I see where Rails is trying to lookup things by default, e.g. when I just use t(‘.something’) ?

    You can monkey patch the I18N backend in development mode to print out the I18n keys that are looked up in the backend.

    Check here:
