Presets/Track/Tracktype: unclear translation in German language

Description
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- switch JOSM into German language
- select a way and open menu/Vorlagen/Straßen/Wege/Feld- oder Waldweg
- "Typ des Weges" (=tracktype)
What is the expected result?
in English just "grade1", "grade2" are listed
What happens instead?
in German "Grad 1 (Asphalt)", Grad 2 (Schotter)" etc. are listed.
The words in brackets are very unclear and not what is written in the Wiki what these different tracktypes are distinct from each other:
"how well-maintained a track or other minor road is, particularly regarding surface firmness".
e.g. grade 5= "..Soft. Almost always an unpaved track lacking hard materials.."
In JOSM-German the word in brackets of grade 5 is "stark bewachsen" which translates to " heavily obergrown". This has nothing to do with the explanation in the Wiki (both English and German wiki). In reality even a grade 2 track could be "heavily overgrown" if the bushes etc. around an on the track are not being cut for a while.
Please either remove this misleading words in brackets or replace them with Wiki-conform words.
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

Translations are made by the community. See Translations#Softwaretranslation about how to fix strings by yourself.



grade 1 (Asphalt) is ok!
grade 2 (Schotter = gravel) is unclear. Even grade 3 or grade 4 track can consist of more or less gravel, fine gravel or sand
grade 3 (unbefestigt = unpaved) is unclear. each track between 2 and 5 is more or less "unpaved".
grade 4 (leicht bewachsen = slightly vegated) und grade 5 (stark bewachsen = heavily vegetated) ist not the main distinction feature of tracktypes in my opinion. Yes, vegetation of a track is also part of the review but the main feature regarding the Wiki explaination is the constititution of the surface of a way.
