Where do I report translation improvements?

Hi,

I use Trading 212 in Dutch and I found some string translations which could be translated a bit better. Where do I report those?

Thanks,
Chantal

Hi Ivan,

I know it is a challenge. Here the first improvement:

“Openen” and “Sluiten” are plural. Normally in Dutch we use “Open” and “Sluit” (like open and close) in singular. The others are also singular.

Will add more below. Noticed some other things.

“Hangende Orders” should be “Openstaande orders”
“U heeft geen Hangende Orders.” should be “U heeft geen openstaande orders.”

Thanks @chantal, we’re on it!

More to come. Maybe better to combine them all in one post?

Whatever works best for you! :slight_smile:

Almost ok. Check capitalisation above. :wink: We have specific rules for capitals in words in sentences in Dutch.

“Voorgeschiedenis” should be “Geschiedenis”
(Voorgeschiedenis is a translation of Prehistory)

“Al” should be “Alles”
“EINDATUM” has a typo, should be “EINDDATUM”

Is there a list of strings available? I have noticed a lot more errors in mails, real money and practice environments. Too much to post overhere. A translation service like transifex.com would be awesome to propose changes.

Found another weird translation on the CFD user interface:

“Veroorzaakte” isn’t really the right context. “Veroorzaakte” is used in Dutch like “Causing an accident” or something like that.

"Neem de winst" (Take the profit) would be better, but even better would be a generic “Positie gesloten” (Position closed). In the notification itself it shows a profit or loss. This could be shown at TP, SL or TS.

Found some additional strings on the CFD platform:

“lopende bestellingen” -> “nieuwe orders”
“Nieuwe hangende order” -> “Nieuwe order”

(note: not needed to call it pending order, in Dutch a pending order is an order which is waiting to be filled)

“Hangende Order” -> “openstaande order”

“Nieuwe hangende order” -> “Nieuwe order”

(note: not needed to call it pending order, in Dutch a pending order is an order which is waiting to be filled)

“Hangende Orders Bevestigd” -> “Openstaande order bevestigd”
“Huidige Hangende Order is bevestigd.” -> “Huidige openstaande order is bevestigd.”

FRENCH Version: There is a letter ‘a’ at the beginning of the sentence. This letter is useless and should be deleted.

Also, I would suggest to delete $ signs and replace by € on home page for European countries “Invest with a just as 1€”.

Thanks.
