what I found on the internet but sadly none helped:

In Magento 2, what does `translate="true"` really do in XML?

https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.3/frontend-dev-guide/translations/translate_theory.html

How to translate title attribute in acl.xml

What I tried after making a working i18n translation file:

1- change the translate attribute to true

2- change the translate attribute to the string i want to translate

Any advice would be appreciated Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I ran into the same problem yesterday. Apparently, there is no translation function in module-company. I could solve the problem by overwriting the class Block/Company/Role/Edit.php and changing the code in line 121 as follows:

from

$resources[$counter]['text'] = $resources[$counter]['title'];

to

$resources[$counter]['text'] = __($resources[$counter]['title']);

Answer 2

So in the end I found the responsible block for this area which is: vendor/magento/module-company/Block/Company/Role/Edit.php

And at first I tried the solution of (Adam H.) but it was then pointed out to me that if there is a future update for magento that changes this my override might be breaking the code

So i ended up building an after plugin in a new module

<?php

namespace ModuleScope\ModuleName\Plugin;

use Magento\Company\Block\Company\Role\Edit;

class TranslateRolesAndPermissionsPlugin
{
    public function afterGetTreeJsOptions(Edit $subject, array $data)
    {
        array_walk_recursive($data, function (&$elementValue, $elementKey) {
            if ($elementKey === "text") {
                $elementValue = __($elementValue);
            }
        });
        return $data;
    }
}

and added this di.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="Magento\Company\Block\Company\Role\Edit">
        <plugin name="translate_roles_and_permissions" type="ModuleScope\ModuleName\Plugin\TranslateRolesAndPermissionsPlugin" />
    </type>
</config>

I think this way is clearer and more clean and can mange changes from Magento
