Bug Description

I was told by a native Spanish speaker that the buttons to launch the dialer app to make a call and to launch the messaging app and send a text message are *nouns* but they should be *verbs*.

Can someone please translate these are comment in this bug when complete?

https://translations.launchpad.net/texts-scope/trunk/+pots/texts/es/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=Message
* maybe that should be "Enviar sms" or "Mensajear"

https://translations.launchpad.net/texts-scope/trunk~/+pots/texts/es/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=Call
* maybe that should be "Llamar"

Many thanks!

Please wait before translating. As was mentioned in the related bug [1], we need Calls and Messages as BOTH nouns (for scope name) and verbs (as actions). so I will check whether I can use msgctxt to disambiguate the identical source strings with comments and report back here.

After checking, there is no need to disambiguate. [1]

Please go ahead and translate.

"Call" an d"Message" are only used in source as verbs.
