 * Hi [@sacconi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sacconi/),
 *  The esc_html__ retrieves the translation of the string and escapes it, so there
   isn’t a need for gettext.
 * Please check this for more info:

 * Could you please explain further about what you are looking to achieve?
 * Regards,
