There are several untranslated strings in the patterns which I discovered while looking through the files of the theme. For the majority of this strings adding a translation isn't a big deal.
However there is one string, that might be a bit tricky to translate and keep the styling in place. In the footer-offset-* patterns, there's this big Let's Work Together. The words are put separately in span elements, with the first one having a bunch of additional CSS. It would be wrong to translate the words individually without the spans, because in different languages the grammar can be in a different order. Let's take German for example:
- Translated word by word: "Lass arbeiten zusammen"
- Translated meaningfully, informal version: "Lass uns zusammen arbeiten"
- Translated meaningfully, formal version: "Lassen Sie uns zusammen arbeiten"
As you can see, not only the word order changes from the original English string, but in German there need more words to be added to make it grammatically correct. So it's not possible to translate each word individually, instead the entire string with the span tags and additional CSS must be included to ensure correct translation. And then this leads to the fact that a translator is now in charge of the design decision which words to highlight with the first span. The final question is: shall this string remain untranslated to ensure it follows the design, or is the entire string added to the translation to ensure it can be translated correctly?
Here's an overview of the untranslated strings per pattern file:
