Etsy, you mistranslate something on German speaking pages!

Hello.

We now see on search pages  "by" (shopname)" , - which would be correctly translated to German like this:

"von (shopname)",  in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Instead we get to see:  

"Bis" (shopname)", which is a wrong translation. "Bis" means "until".  

"Von" would be the correct translation here!

 

I already reported this in the chat, who said they would forward it to the according team.

So far, nothing has happened! 

Can anybody imagine how confused German speaking buyers in 3 countries are going to be? All shopnamesw starting with "Bis"? 

Please, fix it. This could cause buyers to think we are just subcontractors of "Bis" (whatever that means...) and not the independant designers and owners. 

Thank you.

Etsy will probably have to request this of whatever translator they use. But it does look like a major mistranslation.
