    The German translation is right but sounds a bit demanding in my opinion.

    I think “Europäisch kaufen” sounds nicer and still matches the translation and meaning.

      The German translation is right but sounds a bit demanding in my opinion.

      It is supposed to be imperative, no? A call to action? Does your translation still convey that?

      I’m actually starting to think that Buy European needs a wiki or something, so that people can contribute and it stays available instead of disappearing behind the “Hot” sorting algorithm. Then translations like yours could be recorded.

        There are four imperatives you could use here:

        • kauf or kaufe - used with “du” (informal, singular)
        • kauft - used with “ihr” (informal, plural)
        • kaufen - used with “Sie” (formal, sing. or plural)

        All four would be grammatically correct here, but using the informal forms towards someone who you aren’t acquainted with sounds a bit too bossy, too rude. So I’d recommend using the “Sie” forms instead.

        I also recommend changing the verb. As @[email protected] said, the Nazi used the slogan “Kauft nicht bei Juden” (don’t buy from Jews), and the association is still strong.

        I would also find a wiki pretty usefull, could be potential for a new thread. My translation doesn’t call to action. Your right we should stay with “Kauft europäisch”.
