Column translated to the Dutch word for Row

Post by koningco »

I discovered a mistake that I can not correct myself because the translation was verified more than 30 days ago. In the game Cartographers the following sentence is translated incorrect to my language Dutch: Earn two reputation stars for each forest space in the longest unbroken column of forest spaces.
The current Dutch translation is "Verdien twee reputatiesterren voor elk bosvakje in de langste ononderbroken rij bosvakjes." But the word "rij" means row. Can an experienced translator correct the word rij to kolom (kolom is the Dutch word for column)? Thank you!

I hope this link works to immediately find the incorrect sentence:

If nobody replies in the next days, you can also try to contact the translator directly and ask him to update it. I would do it but I can't change translations for NL

Or you could ask in the Dutch forum: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=412

Language is a source of misunderstanding. (Antoine de Saint-Exupery: The Little Prince) But it is also the source of understanding - it all depends on how you use it. :-)

Can a "senior" translator please correct this? This original translator has not logged in on BGA for more than a week and I don't have the rights to correct an already validated translation.

The only thing that needs to change is to replace the word "rij" by the word "kolom" here: https://boardgamearena.com/translation? ... nderbroken It's the 2nd word before the end of the translated sentence.
