Transform the model name into a more humane format, using I18n. By default, it will underscore then humanize the class name

BlogPost.model_name.human # => "Blog post"

Specify options with additional translating options.

# File lib/active_model/naming.rb, line 26
def human(options={})
  return @human unless @klass.respond_to?(:lookup_ancestors) &&
                       @klass.respond_to?(:i18n_scope)

  defaults = @klass.lookup_ancestors.map do |klass|
    klass.model_name.i18n_key
  end

  defaults << options.delete(:default) if options[:default]
  defaults << @human

  options.reverse_merge! :scope => [@klass.i18n_scope, :models], :count => 1, :default => defaults
  I18n.translate(defaults.shift, options)
end
