Hi,

Just a few comments.

1. There are code references below the edit field and references to the  
branch at the top of the page. If use them as expected it is easy to find  
some code. Example for "at":

NewEventEntryField{
                             id: startTimeInput
                             title: i18n.tr("at")
                             objectName: "startTimeInput"

QML is easy to understand, isn't it?

2. Being lazy is not an answer for the real translator.

Best regards,
Yuri
