Hi, I'm trying to an activemodel instance with translations. I find that the only way validations work (with another locale) is by duplicating the error message for every field I defined int he model. So for this model: require 'active_model' class User include ActiveModel::Validations attr_accessor :first_name, :last_name, :email...
