Yes. There's no rule to set full stops after uncomplete sentences.

Why? In the original you've used »the« too.

and leave »focus point« untranslated?

I take Torsionswinkel.

Mmh. I've searched this term. (See Wikipedia link above)

ok. all occurences changed.

No, that's wrong. Plural of Wasserstoff is Wasserstoff.

ok, but Fit isn't a german word. Is this understandable for users who 
don't speak english?

ok. But if these variables aren't translatable, you (or upstream) can 
remove them from gettext.

Thanks for your correction. I've attached the recent file. Who sends 
this translation to upstream?

Kind regards,
