Some of my board titles in Dutch are displayed with a different text than what I entered. When I edit it, it does display the original text in the edit field, but changes back to the wrong one, once I leave the edit. The displayed text is vaguely related to the original one. It looks as if underlying, the title is translated to another language and then translated back for display. If this is some added 'smart' feature, then I DON'T WANT IT. Why can't it just leave my text alone and display it as it was meant to be, not as what some artificial stupidity is making of it.
And just like that, less than a minute after I posted the above, the board titles magically returned to their original text.
Still like to know what caused this though
This can happen if your browser (Chrome/Safari) is doing live translation of the page.

My Chrome is set to ask me if it needs to translate. Moreover, the languages I understand and speak (Dutch-French-English-German), are excluded from translation. And even then, why would it even bother to translate from Dutch into Dutch? Does not make sense to me.
Anyway, you might be right, because I now checked in Google Translate and there it detects my Dutch word as being a misspelled English word, not as a genuine Dutch word, and proposes the translation that I saw.
So it was probably Chrome that was at fault for disregarding my language settings.
Case closed.
