German site menus - 4/15/2017 9:40:03 AM

For some reason, the left screen menu and some of the buttons on the collarme site switched to German. Aargh... Has anyone else experienced this as well?
While I do have some basic understanding of the language (I'm a native Dutch speaker and there's quite a few similarities), I would dearly appreciate a full English version once again.

No - from the UK.

Someone else may be able to help you.

But in the meantime set your keyboard & language to Amercashire infidel, or English jackals - clean out your cache and reload the site.

Ja, hatte ich auch - seit gestern.

But only part of the buttons, and some translated incorrectly (software translator), and some changed labels again, since yesterday.

Whoever is playing around with this: back to previous please

Even for a German native speaker it only creates confusion

Meine Meinung: was meint ihr?

Aw, why spoil the fun?

I love reading the translator from Mandarin or Cantonese audio seller sites when they say "frequency responsible- 20Hz-20kHz"' as English translation for frequency response (der Frequenzgang).

All joking aside, I'm sure that grossly inadequate translation is in fact annoying when trying to read news, forums, common interest groups., etc.

This style shows it was done by Collarspace.

Riesige Scheiße !

To: cs admin

Please notice: the latest change to German labels for German users (does it affect everyone with a qwertz keyboard?) "invented" new genders - now there are some labeled as "weiblich weiblich" (female female) and "mannlich weiblich" (male female)

This does not make ANY sense, even re-translating myself is no help to guess what that might stand for now.

please back to previous English labels

Das war eine bewusste Änderung der Politik anderer Nationen, die nicht der internationalen Sprache von Englisch mein Freund sprechen zu können.

Du kannst aber leider auch kein Deutsch - versuch es lieber gar nicht erst.

Und deine Übersetzungssoftware kann es nun mal leider auch nicht. Darum kam auch bei der Übersetzung der site menus solcher Unsinn zustande.

Translating means more than an 1:1 equation of single terms.
