 * The Mailchimp widget shows the wrong label on the email address field. It shows“
   Email address”, while I have changed that to the Dutch “emailadres” in my form
   settings on mailchimp.com. The first name and last name fields are showing the
   translated labels correctly.

 * Hi [@bkummel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bkummel/),
 * Thanks for the post. I understand the confusion here and I’m happy to help out.
   To clarify a bit, translating the Email address field, specifically, and all 
   related success messaging requires a little code tweak, [as detailed in this forum post](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/translation-and-styling/).
   The steps to translate the email address field are as follows:
 * 1. Within the WordPress Admin Panel, click “Plugins” in the sidebar
    2. Locate
   the MailChimp plugin and select “Edit” to access the plugin files 3. Locate the
   mailchimpSF_add_email_field function and edit the text “Email Address” as pictured
   in this screenshot: [https://cl.ly/2C2r1z2x2c3z](https://cl.ly/2C2r1z2x2c3z) 
   4. Click the blue “Update File” button to save those changes 5. Navigate back
   to Plugins > MailChimp > Settings 6. Select the “Update List” button to force
   the plugin to check with the file changes made and apply those updates made to
   the file.
 * That should get you headed in the right direction, but please feel free to reply
   back here if any additional help is needed.
 * Thanks again!
 * Pearl
