Press Strg + Zeitraum to unlock 1Password. - Strange translation

Can somebody please provide an explanation what key is meant by "Zeitraum"? Also I thought the Chrome extension is only in English? Why is there a translation mix?

    In English this is "period" or "full stop"; in other words, the "." character.

    I don't speak German, but "Zeitraum" seems to be a (possible?) mistranslation of "period" (referring to a period of time, rather than the grammatical mark).

    Hey @dahanbn,

    The Strg+Zeitraum is Chrome's German localization for Ctrl+Period which activates 1Password so you can unlock it. We do indeed have German localisations. Do you not see anything localized in German?

    @dahanbn:

    I completely understand, and we can control and will improve many of the translations. However, Zeitraum is coming directly from Google Chrome as the keyboard shortcut is set within Chrome's Keyboard Shortcuts for Extensions. Since you're the second person to bring this up, I'll open a bug report with Google Chrome and see if they can get that fixed.

    Thanks for your feedback, it's greatly appreciated.
