So German is the original here. Is this fine?
If translators for other languages (lets say french) translate this file,
they will most likely translate from the english file, because most of them
will not understand german.
So I think it would be better to make English the original.
And I read the german version and found a sentence that makes me think,
that the author also wrote the english version as original and then the german
version was translated from english:
"Wir schätzen Debian als Betriebssystem insbesondere für seine
Stabilität und Leistungsfähigkeit ..."
IMO a native german speaker would not write that, but instead the
following:
"Wir schätzen Debian als Betriebssystem insbesondere aufgrund seiner
Stabilität und Leistungsfähigkeit ..."
This reads as if translated from english, because
"We like Debian particularly for its stability and productivity"
is ok in english (I think).
Comments?
