A good discussion point is segment 10: Mit einer Jahresmitgliedschaft sind die ersten 45 Minuten jeder Fahrt kostenlos. is good German, and QA reports “Mitgliedschaft” as missing because it looks for the whole word.
One good answer, not the only one. Tags are shown as the numbered chips the editor shows.

| 1 | How to rent a Pedalway bike | So leihen Sie ein Pedalway-Fahrrad aus |
| 2 | Create an account in the Pedalway app and add a payment card. | Legen Sie in der Pedalway-App ein Kundenkonto an und fügen Sie eine Zahlungskarte hinzu. account → Kundenkonto. “Account” is forbidden: the client wants German words where they exist. |
| 3 | Find a dock near you on the map. | Suchen Sie auf der Karte eine Station in Ihrer Nähe. dock → Station or Fahrradstation: both are allowed, Station is preferred. |
| 4 | Scan the code on the bike to unlock it. | Scannen Sie den Code am Fahrrad, um es zu entsperren. unlock → entsperren. “aufschließen” is forbidden: there is no key, the bike is unlocked from the app. The check knows the forbidden term only in the form the termbase writes it, so “um es aufzuschließen” gets no Forbidden term warning, only the missing “entsperren”: worth showing the class. |
| 5 | Each ride is free for the first 30 minutes. | Die ersten 30 Minuten jeder Fahrt sind kostenlos. |
| 6 | After that, every 15 minutes cost €1. | Danach kosten alle 15 Minuten 1 €. |
| 7 | An e-bike costs €2 per ride. | Ein E-Bike kostet 2 € pro Fahrt. e-bike → E-Bike, with both capitals: the check keeps the capitals of a term written that way. |
| 8 | To end your ride, push the bike firmly into any free dock. | Um Ihre Fahrt zu beenden, schieben Sie das Fahrrad fest in eine freie Station. |
| 9 | A green light shows that the bike is locked. | Ein grünes Licht zeigt an, dass das Fahrrad gesperrt ist. |
| 10 | With a yearly membership, every ride is free for the first 45 minutes. | Mit einer jährlichen Mitgliedschaft sind die ersten 45 Minuten jeder Fahrt kostenlos. “Jahresmitgliedschaft” is good German too, but the check looks for the whole word “Mitgliedschaft” and reports it as missing. Accepting that warning, rather than rewriting good German, is the right answer: a term warning is a question, not a verdict. |
| 11 | You can delete your account at any time in the app settings. | Sie können Ihr Kundenkonto jederzeit in den App-Einstellungen löschen. |
