First off, you have to know that not all Wordpress plugins can be translated. The plugin developer(s) had to take the necessary steps such as using the Wordpress __() and _e() functions and load_plugin_textdomain() in order to parse the strings/text of the plugin through the localization system.
addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lost-in-code.com%2F48%2Fwordpress-translate-a-plugin%2F’;

Using PHP, you might need to strip the path from a URL, leaving behind just the filename at the end of the URL. You can achieve this with a regular expression pattern of course, but I have a much simpler solution. See the example code below.
addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lost-in-code.com%2F34%2Fphp-strip-filename-from-a-url%2F’;
addthis_title [...]
