I can see that that's a problem :-)  I'm sure it must be possible to do 
something about this, but it's a specialist area.  I wonder if Kevin Koffler 
can help?  I feel that there must be specialist lists for handling language 
problems.  I'd be inclined to try asking on kde-i18n-it - 
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-i18n-it

Although the main focus is on translation they may well be able to tell you 
what you need to do to get the languages correctly aligned.
