By the way, should I rather use this thread or can I use Discord channel # renshuu-translations instead?

I think you'll probably get more of a response here, the discord channel for the translators is extremely quiet.

Well, it seems some wasei eigo snuck in there and nobody noticed. Yes, that refers to recent mistakes.

@マイコー I realised that it is difficult and prone to mistakes to translate the englisch example sentences of a new grammar lection without seeing the japanese original. It would be helpful if that could be included.

For example: the word "reasons" can be translated in different terms in German, depending on the context. "Reason" can be "Grund" like in "motivation" or "cause" but in the grammar lection about the particle し it's German meaning/accurate translation would be "Begründung" which is used in context of explanations or argumentation (A is x because of B). But "Begründung" would be translated most of the time as "explanation" or "justification" to distiguish it from the word "reason" with the meaning of "cause".

Therefore one has to guess according to the english sentence what has likely been written in the orginal japanese sentence to find a correct german translation. Word to word translation does not work.


it is also difficult to translate grammar explanations that refer to a specific term or word in the original japanese sentence without seeing the sentence..

This note is incorrect, the syntax for linking to the dictionary is # for words, ## for kanji and ### for grammar.

The syntax was probably changed at some point and the German translation didn't get updated.

Actually, it's always been that way, so maybe just a mistake in the original translation.

As to the above note, ...that's a really good point. There isn't a good way to handle this on this page. Instead, this is what I'd recommend. Go to settings on the translation page, and turn on the "globe" icon. That lets you actually go through the lesson, and then you can tap on the text on the page and pull up the translation panel (so you can get the context for the sentence.)

I do have the globe activated (btw it appears in top left corner, not the right, as said under settings - at least for me) but I don't know how to use it. It does not do anything on the translation page. What do I have to do for it to let me go through a specific lesson?
