Just adding the translation keys here, so devs have an easier time finding those: 1. Typo _1_ → _13_ wrong: `"[SPELL7703_DESC]": "Webe den ersten Feind ein und platziere das Zeichen des Jägers auf ihm. Füge ihm {1} Schaden zu. Wenn es 1 oder mehr lilane Edelsteine gibt, belege ihn mit dem Todeszeichen."` correct: `"[SPELL7703_DESC]": "Webe den ersten Feind ein und platziere das Zeichen des Jägers auf ihm. Füge ihm {1} Schaden zu. Wenn es 13 oder mehr lilane Edelsteine gibt, belege ihn mit dem Todeszeichen."` 2. Typo _Horrow_ → _Horror_ wrong: `"[TRAIT_DAEMONICPACT_DESC]": "25% Chance beim Tod einen Uralten Horrow zu beschwören."` correct: `"[TRAIT_DAEMONICPACT_DESC]": "25% Chance beim Tod einen Uralten Horror zu beschwören."` 3. Typo _Edelscheine_ → _Edelsteine_ wrong: `"[SPELLEFFECT_DESTROYGEMS]": "Edelscheine zerstören"` correct: `"[SPELLEFFECT_DESTROYGEMS]": "Edelsteine zerstören"` 4. Typo _Erschffe_ → _Erschaffe_ wrong: `"[SPELL8188_DESC]": "Erschffe 10 Edelsteine der Manafarbe eines Verbündeten. 50% Chance, eine Kopie dieses Verbündeten zu beschwören."` correct: `"[SPELL8188_DESC]": "Erschaffe 10 Edelsteine der Manafarbe eines Verbündeten. 50% Chance, eine Kopie dieses Verbündeten zu beschwören."` 5. Target was not translated into text, just left blank wrong: `"[TRAIT_CENTAURSHIELD_DESC]": "Verbündete erhalten 2 Rüstung."` correct: `"[TRAIT_CENTAURSHIELD_DESC]": "Verbündete Zentauren erhalten 2 Rüstung."` Coming from this one I would even suggest that the following spell descriptions are also not quite correct, as they use the singular form of “centaur” while addressing a plural: 1. Proper use of plural form, where applicable: _Zentaur_ → _Zentauren_ 6a. wrong: `"[TRAIT_CENTAURSLAYER_DESC]": "Doppelter Schädelschaden gegen Zentaur.",` correct: `"[TRAIT_CENTAURSLAYER_DESC]": "Doppelter Schädelschaden gegen Zentauren.",` 6b. wrong: `"[TRAIT_CENTAURBOND_DESC]": "Verbündete Zentaur erhalten 2 Leben.",` correct: `"[TRAIT_CENTAURBOND_DESC]": "Verbündete Zentauren erhalten 2 Leben.",` 6c. wrong: `"[SPELL8315_DESC]": "Füge einem Feind {1} Schaden zu, verstärkt durch verbündete Zentaur. Erschaffe dann für jeden verbündeten Zentaur eine Mischung aus 6 grünen und gelben Edelsteinen.",` correct: `"[SPELL8315_DESC]": "Füge einem Feind {1} Schaden zu, verstärkt durch verbündete Zentauren. Erschaffe dann für jeden verbündeten Zentauren eine Mischung aus 6 grünen und gelben Edelsteinen.",` 6d. wrong: `"[Troop_K04_06_DESC]": "Sie ist gerne im toten Zentaur.",` correct: `"[Troop_K04_06_DESC]": "Sie ist gerne im toten Zentauren.",` HTH, Gary. ---

Going through, here is some more: Typo _Feinen_ → _Feinden_ wrong: `"[SPELL7276_DESC]": "Füge allen Feinen 5 Schaden zu und versetze den ersten Feind an die letzte Stelle.",` correct: `"[SPELL7276_DESC]": "Füge allen Feinden 5 Schaden zu und versetze den ersten Feind an die letzte Stelle.",` wrong: `"[SPELL7649_DESC]": "Lass 18 Edelsteine auf dem Spielfeld explodieren.

Myzmer’s description needs to be re-done, without the use of Google Translate this time. “One-eyed, multi-horned, flying, purple people-eater.” “Einäugiger, mehr horniger, fliegender, lilafarbener Volksfresser.” 🥴🥴🥴 ---

On a whim: ‘vielgehörnter’ instead of ‘gehörnter’? On the note of ‘purple’ in German… All forms of ‘lilane’ are ungrammatical colloquialisms and should be changed to ‘lila’ (there’s about 120 of those by my count). There’s also several instances of ‘lilafarben’. ---

I did some research on the kind of horns we are looking at. The closest I can see is dinosaur spikes, not horns. This would then translate into: `"[Troop_K02_09_DESC]": "Einäugiger stacheliger fliegender lila Menschenfresser.",` I am not in the mood to start looking for the “lila” problem right now 🙈 Cheers, Gary. ---

My guild mate found another typo, _“doppleten”_ → _“doppelten”_ wrong: `"[TRAIT_PYROMANIA_DESC]": "Verursache doppleten Schädelschaden gegen brennende Feinde.",` correct: `"[TRAIT_PYROMANIA_DESC]": "Verursache doppelten Schädelschaden gegen brennende Feinde.",` Cheers, Gary. ---

The following banner names are ungrammatical (wrong gender): Okularer Banner, Gesunkener Banner, Grausamer Banner, Silbener Banner, Zerissener Banner, Verspiegelter Banner, Tierischer Banner The troop ‘Treant’ is untranslated. Its name is ‘Ent’ or ‘Baumhirte’ in German. ---

Its name is ‘Ent’ or ‘Baumhirte’ in German. Those are some valid points. Here is what I think: - Those banners are mistranslations, but you don’t provide any proposal on how to correct them, inducing more work on the devs (or me if I’m covering that up for you as before). - I think we should at some point wrap it up and let the devs work on one package, without adding more and more and more to the same bug report. - We mixed up typos, grammar mistakes, and complete mistranslations. Maybe we should group it up a bit, to help them prioritize. I’d like to hear @Saltypatra 's opinion on how to proceed here. Cheers, Gary. ---

Well, the forums are ill equipped for large, categorised lists. Maybe a simple web page would be more maintainable. I don’t think we should make much of an effort to provide our own fixes and translations as prior efforts have resulted in the devs rejecting those anyway (“We can’t accept unpaid work”). ---

Awesome work finding these translation issues. The translation was done poorly, yikes. Hopefully the devs get the hint, and you shouldn’t need to point out more. > [@sls](#): > > I don’t think we should make much of an effort to provide our own fixes and translations as prior efforts have resulted in the devs rejecting those anyway (“We can’t accept unpaid work”). This is a good thing. No work should be unpaid. From what I am hearing about several languages being translated… Are these translators even vetted professionals? ---

Well, it’s been a while and very little has changed these past 8 months 🎊 🥳. Figured I might use the upcoming class’ release as an excuse to revive this topic, because the Elementalist’s second trait reuses Infernus’ trait, which also needs fixing. > Elemtarschild: Verbündete Elementare erhalten 2 Rüstung should be: > Elementarschild: Verbündete Elementare erhalten 2 Rüstung Seeing as the Russian translation was given some love recently, how about this topic is forwarded to your German translators once more, cause, you know, 8 months to fix a bunch of typos is silly? ---

This week’s troop (Moon Phoenix) was incorrectly translated. > Mondfeuer : Verursache [Magie+8] Streuschaden, verstärkt durch Platzhalter und lilane Edelsteine. Wenn ein Feind stirbt, erschaffe 4 x2 Platzhalter [4x] This states Moon Phoenix boosts off purple gems when in fact it boosts off purple enemies (as per the English original). It also, once again, uses the wrong word for ‘purple’. There’s now a couple hundred of these. There is no word ‘lilane’ in German, only ‘lila’ - please make your translator look this up, it’s slightly unnerving 🤗 ---

Emperina’s spell description is ungrammatical and uses the wrong (half of a) verb. > Emperina - Lebensatem: Füge einem Verbündeten [Magie] Leben und Attacke. @Jeto - You’re our best hope here!
