**Platform, device version and operating system** PC (Steam) **Screenshot or image** ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/2/3/23a9b38af81f44a3267a669e0c68f53637cd31f7.jpeg) **What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened** It’s just a wrong translation. The phrase “Te han enviado estés regalos en reconocimiento de tus hazañas” should be written as “Te han enviado **_estos_** regalos en reconocimiento de tus hazañas”. **How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?** I realized it today, I don’t know if it has been there since faction implementation. **Steps to make it happen again** Earn enough fame with a faction so you get a reward delivered by game mail. ---

> [@Minipimer](#): > > The phrase “Te han enviado estés regalos en reconocimiento de tus hazañas” should be written as “Te han enviado _ **estos** _ regalos en reconocimiento de tus hazañas”. To be clear, what’s incorrect about this: Google Translate says “ **You** have been sent these gifts in recognition of your deeds” (correct) as opposed to “ **They** have sent these gifts in recognition of your deeds” (incorrect). Is this what you are getting at, that it should be directed to the player individually? ---

I don’t think so – I think what’s in-game is just gramatically incorrect, though a native Spanish speaker should definitely correct me if I’m wrong. “estos pantalones” → “those pants” “estés pantalones” → “you are pants” ---

Well I definitely don’t want to be pants 🤔 ---

The subject of the phrase is not the point. “estés” is a conjugation of the verb “to be”, which makes no sense in the phrase. You want to put a determiner “these” = “estos” before the noun “gifts”. About your question: The phrase subject and verb are correct as you want it to be. “Te han enviado…” is a colloquial impersonal subject phrase, and so it does not include a “They” as the subject is unknown (generic) and ommited in spanish. I checked on google trnslate with the “estés”… and I got surprised it translated it anyway. I suppose it attempts to correct any mispelling or discards anything that makes no sense, replacing it for something that should be put there. @Lyya: I’m a native spanish speaker (from Spain, which would be european spanish; there are subtle variations with latin american spanish). In your example, “estos pantalones” would be “these pants” (m). “those” translates to “esos/esas” (m/f). ---

Thank you, a report has been made for the translation issue to be investigated 🙂
