Hum, you're right (!wrong).

I don't think there is a simple way to solve this.
You will have to use a language trick or set options so that more context
is provided.

Maybe the following is also acceptable (I put an additional space) :

	<!ENTITY left_right "right">
	<!ENTITY wrong_right "right ">

&wrong_right; was not translated because already translated entities alone
are not translated.
