Better German

Improvements for the German translation

Although EU4 has an official German translation, it needs improvement in many areas. This ranges from typos to misleading mistranslations. “Better German” is intended to help here.

Overview

Correction of spelling, grammatical and stylistic errors , e.g.:

• “Frisian” instead of “Frisian”
• “Establish missions in the New World” instead of “Establish missions in the New World”
• “Thirteen-colonial” instead of “Thirteen Colonies-ish”

Correction of translation errors, outdated and incorrect texts , e.g.:

• “Tea” instead of “Ngati Ranginui” (if tea is meant)
• “Move $VALUE|Y$ towards mysticism” instead of “Reduce religious tithes”
• “You support the reform [...].” instead of “You no longer support the reform […]” (if an HRR member supports a reform)

Shortening translations that are too long for the UI , e.g.:

• “[...] recapture” instead
• “Conquest of the core province [...]” (cuts off province names)

Standardization of formulations , e.g.:

• “This is your capital. Defend it to the last man!" instead of "This is its capital. Defend them to the last man!”

Compatible with Ironman mode as only texts are replaced

Compatible with other mods that change the same texts (“Better German” must be loaded first)
