Description

### Describe the issue or suggestion

The german translation for system.collections.generic.dictionary is misleading

https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/dotnet/api/system.collections.generic.dictionary-2.tryadd?view=net-8.0

currently:

`Im Gegensatz zum Dictionary-Indexer wird das Element nicht außer Kraft gesetzt,`

should read

`Im Gegensatz zum Dictionary-Indexer wird das Element nicht überschrieben,`

This is probably because the englisch version of this sentence is also irritating for non-native speakers:

`Unlike the Dictionary indexer, TryAdd doesn't override the element`

I would have expected.

`Unlike the Dictionary indexer, TryAdd doesn't overwrite the element`
