In addition to what Christian said (and is noted in the wiki), you sometimes have interesting comments in the code, like there: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/master/sw/inc/strings.hrc#302 To access those comments, click the link to Source string location in the String information area of the Weblate editor. It's not for all type of strings, but that can be of great help.
