It comes from GTK as is, look at line 151 in ../src/ui/dialog/transformation.cpp
resetButton = addResponseButton(Gtk::Stock::CLEAR, 0);You either have to change that stock button translation in GTK or file a bug to i18n-ize this particular string differently (to allow separate l10n). The latter would work if you can prove this meaning is distinct from the stock button's one.
This is written by Leszek Życzkowski in response to my question, with which I fully agree (at least in the case on which I started this thread). He wrote the idea better than me, so this is why I quote it: === The same problem is in Polish language. I suggest that Inkscape shouldn't use GTK translation. In the another places are the same problems. Please consider resign with GTK translation. ===
I cannot know what interaction may have the "Clear" GTK string on other GTK applications; although I suspect it is always wrong, I need to find another example in another application of this particular string, prior to fill a bug report. This for me is unlikely in short term, since I am on Windows and only use a few GTK ported applications (like Dia (similar issues there, but not critical), GIMP, Pidgin, Syplheed).
