That would be 'Blümchen' and now that you say it I think that could be the better translation. There is no 'blue' in there but it means 'little flower'. So what do you think would match better?

[Shoonay]

oh, right, that's her name
hmmm, yeah, sounds pretty cute for a flower

[TCD]

Okay it's 'Blümchen' then

Another one

'KUFER' -> 'TRUNK' -> 'TRUHE' ('Truhe' = large box should be the right one, but what about 'chest' as the english translation? Most RPG's called these thingies chests )

Edit : I think Irek '72 could really help us here with the translation, since he knows both polish and german. I think I send him a PM

[Shoonay]

good point, fixed to avoid future confusion

[TCD]

Moar

'JARZeBINA' -> 'ROWANBERRY' -> 'VOGELBEERE' (is it really just one berry or would 'berries' be better? It should also be 'ROWAN BERRIES' with the space in the middle )

[Reynolds]

If it can happen, I'd like to do a hungarian version... from english, of course... :I

actually, wiki says it should be rowanberry. BUT good point. this is the tree (rowan) not the fruit (rowanberry)
fixed.

pm me your email, i'll send you the source code

[TCD]

Ready for moar?

'NORA KRETA' -> 'MOLE''S BURROW' -> 'MAULWURFSHUEGEL' (shouldn't it be 'molehill' in english?)

[Shoonay]

i think not. it's not a hill. it's a hole in the ground, under a root/tree in the woods.
at least iirc, in this example, in the game

Okay, then it will be 'Maulwurfsbau'

[TCD]

'MUCHOMOR' -> 'AMANITA' -> 'FLIEGENPILZ' (I think the english word should be 'fly agaric'. Amanita is the general name for this type of mushrooms.)

Exactly, and we don't know what kind it is
look at the polish wiki page

not fixed.

Okay, but my translator prolly called it 'Fliegenpilz' (http://www.ponsline.de/cgi-bin/wb/w.pl enter MUCHOMOR and click on 'Suche starten') So I simply leave it that way

He is right. It should be "Fly agaric" as I proposed at the very beginning.

[Shoonay]

at the very beginning it says Amanita and we don't know what kind this is.
Besides, there's only 1 reference to this "item" in the sourcefile

[TCD]

Maybe a simple 'mushroom' would do
I heard that there is a polish solution to the game. Would you be interested in making a translation mailman?

This is part of my file which I sent you with the very first translation

[Shoonay]

yes, i remember but i was also cosidering the general name for all those.

you know, with mushrooms it's like with cats.
for simple people those are just cats, to those who like them, there's this persian group for example.
and the persian group goes into: Blue Point Persian (Himalayan cat), White Persian, Black Persian, Red-and-White Bicolor Persian, etc.

so i figured, it's not really that important item to call it the exact name (which we don't know anyways).
it's only one simple item, it's only once reffered in the source file, and i don't even remember we ever use it, cause obviously it's poisonous.

[TCD]

What does 'DZIURAWA KlODA' -> 'LEAKY LOG' mean? Is that a log (piece of wood) with a hole in it?
