Wrong comment. My bad. Too many windows upon.

Shoo, USAian. Shoo.

It’s USAian, in fact. That mentality has been bred in the US and exported via media, policy, and products. Disconnecting from US media can do wonders for mental health.

Thanks! LLMs do struggle with short texts or slogans in non-English languages, even when provided context. I tried a few and wasn’t confident any were right.

Thank you! Good thing I asked here, because that’s pretty much what I expected.

Wow 😮 That’s longer than I thought it would be. Is that what would also be written in ads, flyers, and posters? (Learning more about different languages is fun!)

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.

That’s #4 of the “I have it on good authority” section isn’t it? I copy-pasted it from your last comment 😉

Is XING even available in English?

I made a thread about it and at least one person made a modification. It’s made with inkscape, the SVG is shared with CC BY-SA 4.0 , so feel free to modify it and share it. We need more people making stickers for sure!

Bootlicking reddit mods. Who would’ve thought?

I’m not a graphic designer and have no eye for design. The SVG is provided and licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0, so anybody can open it in Inkscape to make the changes they think are necessary :)

You can’t give DeepL instructions. Just the text you want to translate (just like Google Translate). It’s better than Google Translate for most things.

Thank you for the explanation. Languages are fascinating. LLMs still have to go a long way to have good translations. This is what I expected honestly. I know some people who speak languages not often found on the internet and the translations are awful.

Could you provide one in SVG format? I’m not sure what you mean.

Thanks! I’ll make a post asking others for help in other languages. I’m 100% sure there are other terrible translations :D

Out of curiosity, what’s wrong with deepl’s translation here?

Technically, Russia is too. 🤷

No worries, blame deepl 😛 What’s a better translation?
