In my model I am using errors.add\_to\_base:

errors.add\_to\_base “Error 1”

This works fine.

If I do this twice:

errors.add\_to\_base “Error 1”  
errors.add\_to\_base “Error 2”

I receive the message:

translation missing: en, activerecord, errors, models, modelname,  
attributes, base,

as part of my error messages.

Anyone know how to get rid of this?

Many thanks,

Mike
