Thanks everyone for your input into the issue. I have correct the issue by having the variable on its own separate line in the help files.

Hi Lera and all,

Yes these have been my changes in order to reduce duplication of
translations, which is what <embed> and <embedvar> is used for.

In general, it is a very bad practice to split translatable strings into
different parts. Even if it duplicating parts of the strings increases
the work for translators, it is often the only way to gt proper
translation for many languages. The increased effort can always be
alleviated by good translation memory.

Khaled
