I use �bersetzer, because that's what they are. I don't know if there is german Hurd documentation but the articles I wrote. I think it is silly to use german declensions or conjugations for foreign words, like "Votet euren Lieblingssong". It only leads to confusion [1]. Thanks, Marcus [1] I consider this practice acceptable only for jokes and words which are incorporated by usual language development, like pullover etc. -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
