Localized TelerikMessages are bad

The german translation of "TelerikMessages.resx" resource file have gotten incredibly bad over the last few updates. For example "Cancel" has 4 different translations and most of them are simply wrong! "Absagen" or "Stornieren" are possible german translations for "Cancel", but not in the context of a simple "OK/Cancel" dialog. Aren't there any people who can control this? I can't possibly present these texts to my customers!

Heiko, I apologize if my response sounded inappropriate.

My main objective was to imply that we do the best we can, given the lack of foreign language expertise.

If you care to suggest specific improvements, I will readily apply them, so that everyone can benefit.

I find this answer very rude and annoying! The translations are getting worse and worse, with each update there are new errors. With this miserable quality, Telerik should better omit the translations altogether!

Thanks for nothing!

Hi Heiko,

We provide official support for the English localization messages only. All the rest are more like an example and we provide them as is. You can make changes or use the localization files from the community (or even contribute).

I am sorry if there has been a misalignment of expectations.
