In Polish on this forum we have a situation in which this menu is devoid of Polish translation in two places.
Is the same situation in your native language?
is → it should be in Polish
My settings → Moje ustawienia
Change your username → Zmień swoją nazwę użytkownika
P. S. I don’t think the situation requires adding it to the ideas column, because this is a Google error in this forum.
Clearly a mistake. Thanks for posting this, @user_not_found .
Hi @user_not_found ,
I just tested the Danish language settings and the same translation problem is there also.
We need help from a moderator like @MortenSI on this.
Cheers
Just confirming that by some freaky accident it is not Polish and Danish only: I checked for Dutch and there it is the same problem @user_not_found @MortenCopenhagen
Great catch, @user_not_found , @MortenCopenhagen , @JanVanHaver
Let me tag @TsekoV for escalating the issue to Lithium
Thanks for flagging this @user_not_found and @MortenCopenhagen and @JanVanHaver for confirming the errors in your languages as well.
We will investigate this further and update this thread accordingly.
@MortenSI @ErmesT @JanVanHaver @MortenCopenhagen I am surprised that no one noticed this before. And here is such a Czech mistake.
@MortenCopenhagen How Danish is Google Maps? Because for me it is well translated into Polish and I see the English version for you. Is this also a mistake in Danish? Google Kort?
Hi @user_not_found ,
You know how English terms makes their way into other languages. I think “Google Maps” is a very common Danish term these days. I did wonder about “Local guide” which would be “Lokal guide” in Danish. But then again I think it is a concept / brand and hence no need to translate. No change of misunderstanding.
But I did notice some thing else. It is also an issue in English:
Your contributions

Who us talking here? Google talking to me would be :
Your contributions
Your settings
And users talking to ourselves would be
My contributions
My settings
You can’t switch narrator like that in one menu.
Deleted on purpose
@MortenCopenhagen I just wanted to make sure that Google Maps is well translated into Danish. In Polish it is written in Polish.
As for the narrative, I agree with you and I noticed it a long time ago, I was surprised, but somehow I got used to it and it did not matter to me. Perhaps this difference is due to the native language of the author of this idea … I support the idea of switching to “mine” in these places.
@MortenSI In private messages, instead of “inbox” it is “send message” in Polish.
