Selling on amazon.fr

French turns a German compound inside out. The thing itself comes first and everything describing it follows, which changes where your search terms sit in the title.

What has to change

  • A German compound noun unwinds into a phrase. "Edelstahl-Küchenwaage" is not one French word, it is "balance de cuisine en inox" - the product first, the room second, the material last.
  • Adjectives usually follow the noun. "Digitale Küchenwaage" becomes "balance de cuisine numérique", not "numérique balance de cuisine".
  • Accents belong to the word. "Cafetière" and "cafetiere" are two different strings, and shoppers type both.

What a translator gets wrong

A word for word translation keeps the German order and produces "cuisine balance", which no shopper searches for.

The same title, both ways

Before

Nordhaus Digitale Küchenwaage 5 kg, Edelstahl

On amazon.fr

Nordhaus Balance de cuisine digitale 5 kg en inox

The material moved to the end behind "en", and "Küchenwaage" became three words.
