How do I localize a formatted string

Hello!
So I want to localize my game from English to French, but I have a problem.
My base string is

string.format("%s's water plant", Owner.Value)

which, for my username, shows:

GenericsAccount's water plant

But, in french, I have to put my username at the end, like that:

"Usine d'eau de %s"

So I tried to make it translate from the first string to the second, but it just shows the english version instead of the french one…
So can somebody help me please?

Did you look into this at all yet?

Yes, I did, but it’s really confusing, like I didn’t understand if I should put it in the base string or not (I tried too but it just showed {Owner.Value}'s xxxxx
