    You get an error in the console and then a stack trace on the
    server.&nbsp; The stack trace tells you exactly which key is missing.&nbsp;
    But the console doesn't crash or anything like that.&nbsp; You just
    switch back to your original language and everything works fine.<br>

                actually break the whole console just because of a
                missing key. It's a much better option to look for the
                key in another translation and display that. Chances are
                they will be able to interpret one or two English words.

                                                          &gt;&gt; Marko
                                                          brought this
                                                          to my
                                                          attention
                                                          yesterday.&nbsp;
                                                          For some
                                                          things, we<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt;
                                                          dynamically
                                                          create UI.&nbsp; In
                                                          this case, the
                                                          java code
                                                          contains the
                                                          English<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; text
                                                          and it needs
                                                          to be
                                                          localized.&nbsp;
                                                          Luckily, the
                                                          solution was
                                                          pretty<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt;
                                                          straightforward.&nbsp;
                                                          We just
                                                          replace the
                                                          English text
                                                          with a key
                                                          into the<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt;
                                                          message
                                                          bundle.&nbsp; The
                                                          html template
                                                          that displays
                                                          this text
                                                          already pulls<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; from
                                                          an Angular
                                                          scope so we
                                                          just leave
                                                          that alone and
                                                          pass it
                                                          through<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; the
                                                          |translate
                                                          filter.&nbsp; You
                                                          do need to
                                                          also add the
                                                          double-colon.<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt;<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; One
                                                          nice side
                                                          effect is that
                                                          if the key is
                                                          not found in
                                                          the bundle
                                                          then<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; the
                                                          output of the
                                                          translate
                                                          filter is the
                                                          unchanged
                                                          text.&nbsp; This
                                                          means<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; that
                                                          any code which
                                                          has not
                                                          converted to
                                                          using bundle
                                                          keys will
                                                          still<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; work
                                                          as expected.&nbsp;
                                                          &nbsp;And, any
                                                          third-party
                                                          providers can
                                                          just pass in<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; plain
                                                          text if they
                                                          don't care
                                                          about l10n.&nbsp;
                                                          If they ever
                                                          do care about<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; l10n
                                                          we will just
                                                          need to
                                                          provide a
                                                          means for them
                                                          to add
                                                          key/value<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; pairs
                                                          to the
                                                          resource
                                                          bundles.<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt;<br>
                                                          &gt;&gt; Here
                                                          is an example
                                                          for anyone who
                                                          needs to
                                                          localize
                                                          English text<br>
