When translating into certain languages, #DeepL offers a switch for ‘formal’ or ‘informal’ language. I assumed that this means that pronouns like tu/du/jij etc. will be used in informal mode, whereas vous/Sie/u etc. will be used in formal mode.
Recently I encountered an ‘informal’ #translation of ‘Please complete all content above before continuing’ into German: ‘Mach erst mal das da oben, bevor du weitermachst.’ (Roughly: ‘Do the stuff above before moving on’)
What’s going on here?
