Has anybody started on German yet? I could give it a go helping, but I'd feel pretty stupid given that there are a lot of MUCH better German speakers on the forum. ;)

Brilliant, that's good news! Definitely no need for me to stumble in and slow things down, in that case. :D
How is Spanish doing? :)
EDIT: Ha, just noticed the image where you very clearly answered that and more already. I'm so observant. :P

I think I´ll get it done today but somebody should go through it afterwards to check if everything is understandable and without mistakes ;-)

It helps a lot to have access to a dev. environment to navigate the context too, good move!
The legal section is taking the most time ^^
I love elegant conciseness, and legalese is usually not it:
Example :
"Reproduce, duplicate or copy material from Beltchecker.com"
>>>
"reproduce material from Beltchecker.com"
is there really a legal nuance that is lost here by cutting, omitting, shortening and/or eliminating, abridging or truncating the two aforementioned synonyms?
in general terms for complex translation projects, it helps a lot to review and edit the original for clarity and brevity before translating.
good fun though, I look at that progress bar and want to reach 100% soon!
fun project here :

“I have read and agree to the Terms” is the biggest lie on the web. We aim to fix that.
They to TL;DR versions of the ubiquitous Terms of Services we never read.
I am not a lawyer, but couldn't a site like beltchercker.com have a simplified ToS ? just a handful of short statements, more user-friendly more than lawyer-friendly ?

Excellent! I've switched my interface to German at the mo, which is already giving me some more vocab than I had before. I'll change to Spanish once you're done (though my Spanish is way worse, so that will be a bit trickier for me to navigate. Good for mas palabras, though! :D )

I see that on the notifications tab days and weeks are made plural to add an s after day and week. That is not how it works in a lot of languages:
Day = Dag Dagen
Week = Week Weken
Maybe translate the plural ones too instead of using s append?

Also, it would be smart if all the legal translations have a comment that no rights can be taken from these transitions of the legal conditions and that the English version is the leading one.

Dutch is 100% now. Jan and I will look through the DEV site if we see weird/ incorrect context stuff.

I'm having trouble finding where that actually is in the code. I know there are still some on the stats pages that I haven't touched. But I didn't find them in notifications. Can you send me a link or a screenshot?

I think it's fnPluralS() in functions.php
Yeah that one is a bit of a challenge... :D

The stats pages aren't currently setup for translations. We haven't decided what to do with those yet.
I'll push the updated translations in an hour or so in case you guys find any more while browsing through production.

On the profile page : a one stripe belt is referred to as a one stripeS belt ...
I initially thought it was a translation issue, but it seems something in the code ?

Ok at 52% now with the Spanish translation....I will keep ploughing along tomorrow and over the weekend to get it done asap.

I think I found the rest of the "plurals" and cleaned them up. We still haven't done the statistics pages yet. But we are holding off on them for now.
The new plural translation terms should be available now. The majority of them should already be translated terms and likely not need any more work. However, I think there are 2 or 3 news ones as a result of the cleanup. Once we get to the FAQ and stats pages, there will be a lot more actual translations to do.
