This is a contextual help.

E.g. you can have same word in two different dialogs which should be
translated differently depending on context. This matters for some
languages and doesn't matter for others. So you just read the part
before | and make up your mind how to translate the part after |
character. Then you just put to translation the part after |, dropping
the part before | character and | character itself.

Does it makes sense? :)
