The “Käfer” in “Marienkäfer” translates to “beetle”, not “bird” like it does in the Northern Germanic languages — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.127.32.41 (talk) 18:20, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The “Käfer” in the German “Marienkäfer” translates to “beetle”, not “bird” as it is in the Northern Germanic/Scandinavian languages. The grammar in the sentence implies this translation to “bird” is correct for all the listed names including “Marienkäfer”, when this translation is only accurate for the other languages. The article should be edited to reflect the German translation is “Our Lady’s Beetle” 107.127.32.41 (talk) 18:28, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
