I noticed that on German domains, the descriptions and keywords of products created on 1/27/2024 are not translated into the German language, they are still in the original English language, so customers on the German domains cannot find these products on the Zazzle marketplace by searching with the keywords. This affects the domains of Germany, Austria and the Switzerland.
Here is an example of a product on the German domain:
https://www.zazzle.de/fawn_and_the_matterhorn_of_the_switzerland_postkarte-256532916208856668
Please take a look at this issue, it will probably also affect other products created on 1/27/2024 from other designers.
Many thanks!

I agree with NPL, translations are horrible or, if kind, laughable.
For instance, in Swedish, the English word "notebook" is translated into "laptop". What are the legal side if someone in Sweden buys a "laptop" and expects a computer, not a paper notebook?
I would love to sell on the Swedish Zazzle site but due to so many translation errors I instead hear people ask if it is even a reliable site to buy from, that is how bad it is.

Hi @Mark , somewhat the same matter, but this involves the Dutch site; the titles and desciptions are translated there, but in such horrible and most of the times ridiculous Dutch (i suspect some form of Google translate) that i am ashamed to even use the Dutch site for promotion. Which is a shame. I therefore would rather have the English version (most Dutch people understand English) than the current "Dutch" version. Another option would be to let us do the translations ourselves.
Hope you will pass this on to the team as well.
