Hey. Since you're a native speaker of both English and Dutch: manslaughter is defined as "killing someone unlawfully, but not willfully", and it's translated with German Totschlag and Dutch doodslag. Something's wrong here because the English definition doesn't fit the German and (I'm quite sure) Dutch meaning. "Totschlag" is killing willfully but without prearrangement. Now, is the English definition wrong? Or are the translations wrong? Maybe you could help if you have the time. Thanks.
