Hi,
Where is the correct place to file translations issues?
I stumbled over one trying to figure out the best way to transfer names from a Haza-21 GEDCOM output.
In the Dutch version in the Aries editor there is a field "Roepnaam". This is encoded as a NICK record. "Roepnaam" is not the correct translation for "Nickname".
It should be "Bijnaam".
It confused me for a while as I had the impression that Ancestris supports the non-standard concept of "call name", "Ruffname", "roepnaam", but it doesn't, which is OK.
Using a NICK record for call names would not be correct, that should be used for nick names only.
I'm happy with using the NAME:TYPE "Also know as" for call names.
I just wanted to point out the confusing translation.
best regards
Martin
