Shouldn't that then be:


etTableEdit_box
etc...

But $wgDBprefix should be applied to all tables.  If you have a wiki 
family sharing MySQL, the only differentiation between each member of 
the family is the relative value of $wgDBprefix.  Hence the end result is

$wgDBprefix . "etTableEdit_box"

e.g.
en.etTableEdit_box
fr.etTableEdit_box
de.etTableEdit_box
etc..
