  1. Translated dictionary? So if you want to code a German text? Currently it is not even clear that a German text is not available and you need to write it in English (furthermore, umlauts are not allowed in input field)
  2. Simply show the dictionary as a list, so one can see which words are included

What do you think @t-m-z

Hm.

  1. It is an option. But I wouldn't add it to Crowdin. The translaters will hate us. https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading-room/title-list-alphabetically/n/navajo-code-talker-dictionary.html

  2. I do not understand this point. I relied on the above link.

  3. Valid point to add another tool - Navajo Code book - and a selection

  2. Since the code words are not the 1:1 translations (I watched "Windtalkers" where the code words for Tank was indeed the Navajo word for Tortoise), it could make sense to add the real translations or at least say: Bla-Blubb was used for ABC, but its real meaning was XYZ
  3. Simply show the dictionary as a list, so one can see which words are included
