Package: gnome-tweaks
Version: 3.34.0-4
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,
In the GUI of gnome-tweaks, when using en_GB as locale, I can see the
following text:
Keyboard and Mouse >> Touchpad >> "Disable While Typing"
When using german (de_AT), this is translated to "Anzeigen bei Eingabe",
which is a completely wrong translation. Instead it should be
"Abschalten während Tippen" or "Abschalten während Tastatur-Eingabe".
Regards, Wolfgang

This was probably a "fuzzy" translation for a similar English string
being applied in the wrong place.
In the version of gnome-tweaks in Debian 12, this option is translated to
"Bei Tastatureingabe deaktivieren" instead. Google Translate tells me
that means "Disable on keyboard input", which seems like a reasonable
way to describe this option.
If you think one of your suggestions would be a better name for this
option, please talk to the upstream GNOME German translation team
<https://l10n.gnome.org/teams/de/>.
Thanks,
