SUMMARY
The language in Dolphin is English, although it is set to German.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin.
2. Open Settings/Configure Language from the menu
3. Compare the Language shown in settings with language in menues and context menus.

OBSERVED RESULT
The language in Dolphin in all menues and context menues is English, although it is set to German.

EXPECTED RESULT
Language should be German.

I am not able to reproduce this with Dolphin built from git-master or 23.08.5 in Kubuntu
It's possible there's an old setting or something in cache that's contributing to this. Can you try creating a new user and see if you're able to get Dolphin to display in the language you set?

Thanks!

I have other users on the same PC and for them it's ok. The problem appears
only for one user.

Thanks for the additional detail. Since this is not happening for other users, that points toward this being a setting or conflict in a configuration file. Can  you attach this file for your user that has the bug? ~/.config/klanguageoverridesrc

Thanks!

Is your system language German or English?
