Comment(by gsathya):

 Replying to [comment:1 runa]:
 > So, instead of <string name="menu_start"></string>, you want <string
 name="menu_start"> </string>? Or do you want <string
 name="menu_start"></string> to just not exist on that line in the file?

 Android automatically defaults to English if the string is not found in
 the specific language. But, this happens only if the entire line doesn't
 exist, not if there's a null or empty string.

 Ideally. if transifex doesn't have a translation for that string, it
 should delete that line and not have a null/empty string.
 So, <string name="menu_start"></string>  shouldn't exist in the file.
