  Hi,
  
  Thank you for reviewing my PTE and for taking the time to make corrections.
  
  I understand your decision. I’ll carefully review all of the issues, incorporate the necessary changes, and submit a new PTE once everything has been addressed.
  
  Thank you again for your time and valuable feedback.

  Hi,
  
  Thank you for the clarification.
  
  I understand that this blog is not intended for follow-up requests to review or correct machine translations, and I apologize for misunderstanding how it should be used.
  
  Thank you also for removing the locale tags except for #ja. I understand that the other locale teams may already have received notifications because the post was initially published with those tags.
  
  I’ll be more careful about the purpose of the blog and the use of locale tags in the future.

I noticed that there are some errors and that some translations do not yet meet the guidelines of the German Polyglots team.
The German language has 2 branches: the formal address (Sie) and the informal address (default, du). Some translations are in the wrong branch (Sie instead of du).

As the German Polyglots team does NOT allow unedited/unproofed AI translations, we don’t waste our time reviewing and adapting such submissions. It is entirely the developer’s responsibility to submit high-quality translations that comply with our local guidelines. Therefore, I’ve bulk-rejected your suggestions.
