Same data category twice in German version

Hello Community,  

 

in the German version of Power BI Desktop (2.86.902.0 64-bit (Oktober 2020)), I find the entry "Ort" twice in the list of data categories.

 

"Ort" could mean "place" or "city" in German.

 

Can someone please tell me, what is what and why are different things using the same name?

 

PS: Unfortunately, I can not put a picture in this post, but I hope you will understand, what I mean.  

 

Greetings

Hi @Jan_Trummel 

I have a test in German version and English version, it seem that power bi will translate "place" and "city" to the same category "Ort" in German. The first "Ort" is "place" and the second one is "city".

My Power BI Desktop version is 2.87.684.0 64-bit NOV 2020.

You can submit a new idea (distinguish "place" and "city" in German) to improve the Power BI:Idea
It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
