The problem arises from the usage of * at the start of a non-first line of a multiline string. If i place a * at the beginning of Answer ... the error moves there, and if i remove all * from the start the error disappears.

Reproducible on Fluent Playground

This isn't a bug; the * is not a valid indented_char, which is the rule used for first characters on pattern lines after the first.

[elenakrittik]

If so, what would be the correct way to include *s at the start of a multiline string? Put them as { "*" }? And also, python-fluent works with the example l10n just fine. Is such disrepancy in behavior considered an implementation bug?

[eemeli]

Yes, that's the right way to quote the *. And it sounds like you're describing a bug in python-fluent.

Thanks, sorry for disturbing.
