Literal translation versus true meaning edit
In phaleristics, the German term "Ehrenzeichen" is recognized to mean "decoration" in English (décoration in French, etc). "Badge of honor" is too literal a translation. It's the same for the Russian term "Знак Отличия" (znak otlitsia - badge of distinction), the proper English term is "decoration". This article should be renamed "Decoration of the German armed forces" (or Bundeswehr). Fdutil (talk) 15:24, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
- I can get on board with Decoration as the translation of Ehrenzeichen. It would be best if we had some reliable sources to cite this assertion. EricSerge (talk) 20:03, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
