"set as quick" sounds strange

%@ und %d nehmen Stimme auf

Peer.Activity.Chat.Multi.RecordingAudio1

The word “voice” was translated wrongly.
“Sprache” = “language”
“Stimme” = “voice”

Passwort-Zurücksetzung abbrechen? Erneutes Zurücksetzen erfordert 7 Tage Wartezeit.

TwoStepAuth.CancelReset.Text

The previous translation was quiet long, this is shorter but has the same meaning.

Neue Chats, Gruppen und Kanäle von Nicht-Kontakten automatisch archivieren und stummschalten.

PrivacyAndSecurity.AutoArchiveDesc

The words „bei dir“ aren’t necessary, because it’s not in the original phrase. The position in the sentence of these two words isn’t quiet right, though. „Bei dir“ is the indirect object, which is normally placed before the direct object „Neue Chats, Gruppen und Kanäle“. I also made the sentence shorter.

Red, Dec 22, 2021 at 22:41

Aktivitäten & Sport

Emoji.ActivityAndSport

The previous translation just translated „activity“ and not „sport“, „activity“ includes sports but because of the wide range of emoji relating to sports it’s worth translating it as well.

Red, Dec 22, 2021 at 20:16

Du kannst leider nur 5 Chats oben in der Hauptliste anheften. Mehr können im Archiv oder den Chat-Ordnern angeheftet werden.

ChatList.Context.PinErrorNew2

The previous translation wasn‘t grammatically correct, the words „chats“ and „in“ after „5“ were forgotten.. I also changed it to be a little bit shorter and still mean the same thing.

%@ hat das Gruppenbild geändert

Group.EventLog.Service.PhotoUpdated

Thanks for the suggestion! We cut it short as we had size limitations but would be good to review if that is still the case. It is always important to make sure strings sound good and fit on the device. Sometimes there might be enough space on the screen, but the string itself has a hard size limitation.

Dies ist eine Liste aller Aktionen, die von Gruppenmitgliedern und Admins in den letzten 48 Stunden durchgeführt wurden.

Channel.EventLog.Alert.Info

Changed the first word for a more usual language at this point.

%@ hat den Namen der Gruppe geändert:

Group.EventLog.Service.TitleUpdated

I added the article for more grammatical correctness.

Kay, Dec 21, 2021 at 12:37

%@ hat das Gruppenbild geändert

Group.EventLog.Service.PhotoUpdated

This version is grammatically more correct than the previous one.

Kay, Dec 21, 2021 at 12:35

%@ hat den Gruppen-Link entfernt:

Group.EventLog.Service.LinkRemoved

This translation is a bit shorter than the applied one while maintaining its natural wording.

Kay, Dec 21, 2021 at 12:32

%@ hat den Link der Gruppe entfernt:

Group.EventLog.Service.LinkRemoved

More natural wording instead of an automated translation approach.

Sköll, Dec 19, 2021 at 19:36

Aktiviere diese Option, damit Nutzer erst nach Erlaubnis durch Admins beitreten können.

EditInvitation.RequestApproval.Channel.Off

Alternative take which sounds more natural and sticks closer to the character limit.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 19:13

Zu oft ungültigen Code eingegeben. Versuche es später erneut.

ChangeNumber.ConfirmCode.Error.limitExceeded

No need to use "please" in the applied translation. Also two sentences are better.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 19:11

Neues Passwort eingeben

TwoStepAuth.SetupPasswordEnterPasswordNew

This translation is more precise. The applied translation is missing an important component: the user has to enter a NEW password.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 19:08

Die Nummer %@ ist bereits mit einem Telegram-Konto verbunden.
Entferne dieses Konto, bevor du deine Nummer änderst.

ChangeNumber.SendData.Error.PhoneNumberOccupied

This translation is more precise.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 19:04

Zugriff auf Kamera für Videoanrufe benötigt.

Call.Camera.Error

This translation can be used, if "Telegram" doesn't have to be named. Also the applied translation is wrong - the word "Telegram" is missing to give meaning to the sentence.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 17:04

Telegram benötigt Kamerazugriff für Videoanrufe.

Call.Camera.Error

In German it is common to use compounds (-> Kamerazugriff). This translation can also be used, if it's important that "Telegram" is named in the sentence.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 16:58

Tippt Nachricht...

Notification.Input.Reply

No, it doesn't say the same thing... Your translation is saying that someone is typing right now, but "Type a message..." should be a call to write.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 16:47

Gehe zu Einstellungen > Geräte > Scanne den QR-Code

Login.QR.Help2

No need to use an article in the applied translation. Also there is one thing missing: scanning the QR Code. This translation fits better.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 16:38

Limit erreicht. Bitte versuchen Sie es später erneut.

JoinLink.FloodError

The polite form ("Sie") does not correspond to the Telegram style guide. Users are addressed directly.

Amalia, Dec 19, 2021 at 16:35

Zugriff auf Kamera für Videoanruf benötigt

Call.Camera.Error

The word order of the previous translation is wrong. You normally write what is required (“Zugriff auf Kamera”) before the thing that requires it. That’s because of the German sentence structure subject-object-verb (subject-verb-object would be possible, too).

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 15:26

Nur Admins können in diese Gruppe schreiben.

Chat.Gigagroup.Help

„In die Gruppe schreiben“ equals „send messages in this group“ while „in dieser Gruppe senden“ doesn’t specifically refer to messages, it also sounds less natural, because people normal don’t say it like that.

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 15:16

⚠️ Warnung: Viele Nutzer haben gemeldet, dass sich diese Gruppe fälschlicherweise als eine berühmte Person oder Organisation ausgibt.

GroupInfo.FakeWarning

And you say “ausgeben als” instead of “ausgeben für“ which is a commonly made mistake

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 15:08

⚠️ Warnung: Viele Nutzer haben gemeldet, dass sich diese Gruppe fälschlicherweise als eine berühmte Person oder Organisation ausgibt.

GroupInfo.FakeWarning

Several mistakes were made in the previous translation.
1. “Gesellschaft” doesn’t equal “Organisation” (“organisation” in English), juristically there’s a difference
2. “Fälschlicherweise” wasn’t placed right, it just sound weird
3. “Melden” is present, “haben gemeldet” oder “meldeten” means it happened in the past (like “reported”). “Haben gemeldet” is mostly used in the spoken language, but it’s not wrong to use it in written form and it sounds more personal, that’s why I chose it. “Meldeten” would be perfectly fine, too and also a bit shorter.

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 15:06

Tippt Nachricht...

Notification.Input.Reply

This has nearly the same number of characters as the English one, so it’s shorter than the other translations but says the same thing.

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 14:51

Nicht angehört

Chat.Message.ReadStats.EmptyWatches

In this context “Listened” translates to “angehört” instead of “zugehört”, because “zuhören” refers to a person talking in person and “anhören” equals listening to a device (playing what a person said). There is the option of saying “Keiner hat es angehört”, but “Nicht angehört” is shorter and has the same number of characters and means the same ( nobody having listened to it)

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 14:46

Limit erreicht. Bitte versuchen Sie es später erneut.

JoinLink.FloodError

The current phrasing seemed a bit rude, it’s more polite to directly address someone and it’s just seven more letters.

Red, Dec 19, 2021 at 14:35

%@ ist dem Kanal auf Anfrage beigetreten

ChatService.UserJoinedChannelByRequest

The reasoning behind this change is that there was no German translation so far

Parallels calls it "In Finder anzeigen", so let's do the same.

regarding to the developer it's not "Option' but "control + click".
