Background of the issue:
I am translating a website with the ATE (new version) using Deepl from Dutch to French. I noticed that the translations have words in the wrong order. When I translate the same sentence with Deepl online, it translates correctly. I also had this issue with English translations. It seems related to the glossary term 'Lorgues'. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

STOP USING THIS STUPID AI REWRITING OF MY ISSUE REPORTS. IT DOES IT WRONG AND REMOVES USEFUL INFORMATION. HERE IS MY ORIGINAL REPORT

I am translating a website with the ATE (new version) using Deepl from Dutch to French and it keeps on translating Words in the wrong order. When I translate the same sentence with Deepl online, it translates in the right order.

Examples:

Ontdek de villa La Douce Kees, vlakbij Lorgues.
ATE: LorguesDécouvrez la villa La Douce Kees, près de .
Deepl online: Découvrez la villa La Douce Kees, près de Lorgues.

Rustig gelegen tussen de wijngaarden en olijfbomen in een heuvelachtige en bosrijke omgeving en op loopafstand van het populaire dorp Lorgues in de Provençe.
ATE: Lorgues Situé au milieu des vignes et des oliviers, dans une région vallonnée et boisée, à quelques minutes de marche du village populaire d'In Provence.
Deepl online: Situé au milieu des vignes et des oliviers, dans une région vallonnée et boisée, à quelques minutes de marche du village populaire de Lorgues en Provence.

I also had it with English. It seems like it is somehow related to the glossary term 'Lorgues'.

Symptoms:
The ATE translation from Dutch to French results in words being in the wrong order compared to Deepl online translations. This issue also occurs with English translations.

Questions:
Why are words in the wrong order when using ATE with Deepl?
Is the glossary term 'Lorgues' causing the issue?

I am convinced it it related to the glossary. I have more examples, also with other glossary terms. And when I delete the term from the glossary, the issue doesn't happen any more.

Het centrum van Lorgues ligt op 400 meter wandelen van La Bastide en in circa 25 minuten zit u aan de Middellandse Zee.
- ATE: Lorgues Le centre ville est à 400 mètres de La Bastide et en 25 minutes vous êtes au bord de la mer Méditerranée.
- Deepl online: Le centre de Lorgues se trouve à 400 mètres à pied de La Bastide et à 25 minutes environ de la mer Méditerranée.

Op het landgoed van La Bastide du Pin staan drie zelfstandige gîtes.

Hello,

Thanks for contacting us.

While you wait for my colleague to take over the ticket, let me try to help you with the issue quickly. I created a minimal installation of WordPress, WPML, and all necessary WPML add-ons, and themes.

You can access the WordPress dashboard using the link below:

Try to replicate the issue with a simple example page and glossary entry.

This will help us to report the probable issue and solve the possible problem faster.

Hi, I did the basic setup but that site needs translation credits. I tried to connect it to my active Automatic Translation account, but get the error:

Migrate website service error
Migration code not found

So no way to use automatic translations in the ATE.

Hi,

I'm Osama from WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

First of all, sorry for the late reply; it was due to a higher workload.

Please check if you can use the automatic translation on the hidden link">sandbox site.

Best regards,

Hi Osama, thanks. I did the translation. English looks fine, but German and French incorrectly put the glossary word at the start of the sentences. See attached screenshots.

Any news? You're cleanup bot want to close this ticket, but I am waiting for you to get back to me, not the other way around.

Hi,

I checked with our ATE team, and they don't have an update on an ETA from DeepL regarding this issue.

The workaround for now is to switch to another translation engine or delete the words from the glossary.

Best regards,
Osama

Ok, but please make sure this ticket doesn't get close by the cleanup bot.
