IMHO, this is not the solution.
We may have different values in site xx-XX.ini and admin xx-XX.ini for the same constant.

The only correct solution is to add all missing lang strings in frontend (I know it is a pain).

[infograf768]

Hmm
I tested. It looks that there is no impact doing it this way for these modals.

**Loaded** : JROOT/language/en-GB/en-GB.ini
**Loaded** : JROOT/administrator/language/en-GB/en-GB.ini

Only possible issue would be for TTs providing only frontend translation.
Any way to change the loading order?

I don't think so. Global language file is first loaded very early.

agree

@SharkyKZ
will make proper PR to include the strings in frontend. That would be for 3.9.10 as it is too late for 3.9.9
At the same time I will check why was added loading the backend main ini in #12321 . May need some help if the proper PR does not take care of it..

[infograf768]

We do not need to load admin main ini when the strings are added in frontend.
My patch will therefore delete these calls.

[infograf768]

Maintainers have decided to rather add the strings.
See and test #25475

Thanks. Closing this one.
