For example, this slang is not translated meaningfully into German by deepL
„Is the girl going to have the urge to jump his bones now?”
„Is the girl going to have the urge to jump his bones now?”
Sorry. Auto-correct overlooked. I'm not perfect either.
1. The translation would be from German to English.For example, this slang is not translated meaningfully into German by deepL
„Is the girl going to have the urge to jump his bones now?”
2. Anything like that is easy to fix manually.

That means this coffee shop is near the park where she is going to meet Aiden

Actually yes, the market is full of german-english professional translators.
There are many websites like this one
You must be registered to see the links
Look this example:

"Born and raised in Germany by an (US-) American father and a German mother, I have been speaking both German and English from birth. I moved to the United States at the age of 22, now living here in beautiful Utah. In the now 12 years in the workforce I have translated documents/content countless times, both from English into German, as well as German into English..."
Also, anybody knows why L&P wants someone that
?
Why not just write all the text in german and send it to the translator? He could translate it in a matter of hours, isn't like the updates are that big. If L&P have doubts he could talk to the translator, but why L&P wants a permanet live chat with him? Anybody understands that?

Just to pile on, who but the poorest grammarian is going to have the temerity to mix tenses like that now?For example, this slang is not translated meaningfully into German by deepL
„Is the girl going to have the urge to jump his bones now?”

No idea? What is wrong? By the way... I don’t like your avatar. It is repulsive and childish
Break, Break. Just a note. I would like to Apologize for getting all ranty yesterday about Jets. Totally my bad.
Now back to the coliseum and the feeding of contributors to the lions.

Either that or the parallel event to the Aiden event is connected to the coffee shop,seen from the coffee shop maybe.Just guess work but viper6 could well be right.Seems like it, but I thought L&P cared more about small details like that

I've already posted a couple of times here about translation and even have a family member that does translations as their full time career, and has for several years now, and I have specifically expressed my appreciation for the challenges that arise from slang and colloquialisms.
I wasn't intending to make fun of the sentence you put forward for translation, I was piling on the fact that even correct english can be problematic in translation and doubly so when one writes things that are grammatically incorrect but read, or I guess would sound, correct, if spoken. It wasn't funny, I missed the mark, I move on.
As for my avatar, it's my first attempt at envisioning Dylan as I'd like to see him. I may have missed the mark with that, too. I'll give it some thought.

L&P tells very little about future events in the game, only in general terms. Probably his requirements are related to the fact that he does not send the entire text to anyone for translation, but carries out the translation himself. He needs a person who is constantly in touch to consult when he has questions during work. I believe this is the case.
Seeing daily 10% progress on update is so satisfying. Tears are rolling down my eyes.

Considering that he has 1000 (997) Renders to look at through photoshop then 40+ pages of text, That might be highly unlikely. You might see a move in P&T once the percentage in PS is high.

which is wrong in my opinion.
why do the simultaneous translation and modify it in the course of work?
when the German text is final you send it for translation, and in the meantime you execute the art in photoshop; then if a small retouching should become necessary it would not take more than 1-2 days.
The point where we go around here is always the same: organization of work
moreover, it could also release the game with only the German language and then insert the translation in English, and possibly in other languages, with subsequent patches.
many developers do this
