Hi,

There are a few German native speakers reading these lists (I read and
write German, too, but I’m lousy with email). If you’re uncomfortable
expressing yourself in English it’s fine to use another language that
you are more comfortable with. Sometimes it’s better to optimize
communication than it is to maximize reach.

There is not automatic translation.
