As I am translating/reworking the GUI translations, I'm logged to Crowdin with my own language different from English, select FreeCAD project and I am able to see new added words to be translated.

what I am showing are the two last words to be translated for the French GUI and they appeared about 2 weeks ago but why in Greek?

It looks to me like that is in the Glossary, not in FreeCAD itself. Glossary is a feature of CrowdIn, and it appears a translator has added a few Greek notes to it.

yes chennes, it is more or less what I have in mind, like an accident, but I was not able to formulate it.

thanks, @Kuzma30 oh, how did you get this info? many time I would like to ping authors on Crowdin, and I think I am not the only one @kaktus. Up to now Ileft on Crowdin comments/issues but I am feared that they are not read by the right persons.

the glossary is indeed a crowdin thing, it does not go into FreeCAD. I don't think there is much we can do to prevent wrong edits there, apart from fixing them
