Description David Rabel 2018-01-13 11:18:51 UTC 
In german translation of gnome-control-center in NetworkManager integration, bonding and teaming are translated as Bündelverbindung and gebündelte Verbindung. In my opinion those terms should not be translated at all. But in this special case it's even worse because there is no way to guess which one is teaming and which one is bonding.

Comment 1 André Klapper 2019-02-25 15:14:04 UTC 
David: Thanks for the report.

These strings are not part of gnome-control-center.
I can see "Gebündelte Verbindung" in https://l10n.gnome.org/POT/NetworkManager.master/NetworkManager.master.de.po though, for both "Bond onnection" and "Team connection".
Comment 2 Mario Blättermann 2019-02-25 19:21:24 UTC 
"Team" appears only once translated as "gebündelt":

#: ../clients/tui/nm-editor-utils.c:211
#, c-format
msgid "Team connection %d"
msgstr "Gebündelte Verbindung %d"

All other occurences refer to "bond". So if it is OK for this, then we only have to look for a new term for "team", or leave it untranslated.
Comment 3 David Rabel 2019-02-28 09:10:02 UTC 
As I said: My opinion is not to translate technical terms at all. I'm living and working in Germany and I have never heard anyone talk about "Bündelverbindung".

Why do we have to invent bad translations instead of using the english term as everyone else in Germany? ;)
