Unfortunately the Smith review process introduced one typo into the 
English Debconf templates. "English-Japanese" has accidentally 
changed to "Japanese-English" in the following diff:

 Template: sdic-edict/make_en
 Type: boolean
 Default: false
 _Description: Use the edict version of the English-Japanese dictionary?
- - It is recommended decline this option and use the sdic-gene95 version of
- - the English-Japanese dictionary.
+ Choosing this option is not recommended. The use of the sdic-gene95 version of
+ the Japanese-English dictionary is encouraged.

So, now the template doesn't make sense:

Template: sdic-edict/make_en
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Use the edict version of the English-Japanese dictionary?
 Choosing this option is not recommended. The use of the sdic-gene95 version of
 the Japanese-English dictionary is encouraged.
 .
 However, if you don't want to install that package and still want to use
 such a dictionary, you can select this option and use the edict version.


Correcting this issue without consulting translators might just be 
possible. There is very similar template in the sdic-gene95 which 
could be used as model for this. Some of the languages already seem to
use the correct order of the languages in the sentence.

However, fixing things without asking from translators is always risky 
as some other parts of the sentence could change in some languages 
because of this kind of change. I would have made a patch for youfor 
this change, but I wasn't fluent enough in Russian and Japanese. 

On the other hand, this is also a very simple thing for translators to 
check so asking for new translations probably is not a problem. If 
someone doesn't answer in time, you can try to correct just that 
language yourself. Additionally, this can also bring in some typo fixes 
for other languages.
