Description Seb35 2013-12-13 10:51:19 UTC 
In some messages, the syntax "$4" is not a variable name but a price in dollars (see for instance [[meta:Translations:FDC portal/Annual report on the Funds Dissemination Committee process 2012-2013/19/en]]), however it is presented in the Special:Translate interface as a suggestion of translation variable in the bottom of the translation window.
Comment 1 Seb35 2013-12-13 10:55:00 UTC 
A possible resolution would be to send the translation variable names along with the original message in the Translate extension. I didn’t dive into the code but I guess the message is sent in a JSON variable, where an additionnal field could be added.
Comment 2 Siebrand Mazeland 2013-12-13 11:10:59 UTC 
There are several wars to easily work around this. Add space between the dollar sign and number, don't use the dollar sign, add a zero width marker between the dollar sign and the number. Take your pick and be happy :).
