Description of issue

Missing translation of the UNICHAR and UNICODE worksheet functions in Danish Excel. 

 

Steps to reproduce your issue

Type the function. 

 

Insider Build number

All versions.

 

Platform

Excel for iPad and iPhone
Excel for macOS

Excel for Windows

 

Localization language

Danish

 

Screenshot of the issue

Inserted. 

 

Current translation

UNICHAR and UNICODE

 

Suggested translation  

UNITEGN and UNIKODE 

 

English text (if known) 

UNICHAR and UNICODE 

 

Reason why you feel the current translation should change

Since you have translated CHAR and CODE to TEGN and CODE, the "uni" worksheet functions should be translated as well to be consistent—or vice versa change TEGN and CODE back to the English CHAR and CODE.

Hi @Jørgen Koch

As we discussed over email at the time unfortunately due to the risk of breaking existing customers using the existing translations we decided not to implement your suggested change. Regards, Staff
