The buttons in the lower right of the plugin manager are too small for translations by default.
Screenshot for German, similar for French. Haven't tested more.

I can confirm, noticed that myself just today.
Workaround: make the dialog wider (this setting is kept across sessions)
Btw, why is it
'Tastenkürzel festlegen' and on the other side
'Tastaturkürzel löschen' ?
Because these are 2 different things?
Tastenkürzel and Tastaturkürzel are 2 different things? Maybe 2 different translators . ;-)
Autsch. Will fix it
Done. Wait a little, then update translations
2.1 had that problem too, just one button less (the "Reload plugins" one)
And master still have it too.
And it is (potentially) an issue for every language.
Screenshot for gd locale with the same problem

I would be willing to say it is a problem for most if not all languages, since the translations tend to be more wordy. I checked Afrikaans, Dutch and German, all have this issue.
I have two ideas for suggested fixes
(a) The left-hand pane listing plugin names is less than half used. If you reduce it by 50%, it should have room to spare on the left-hand and allow for buttons large enough to fit many more translation (I can’t say “all translations” since my sample is relatively low)
(b) increase the default / initial dimension of the dialog box to allow enough space (difficult to gauge, I would guess 20%)
Apologies, did not mean to change this to S1 - Blocker. Not sure what happend (my guess: a mouse scroll with focus in the wrong place changed this to a S1 - Blocker). It was on Severity 3. The closest I could find was S3 - Major
Workaround: increase the dialog window size.
Well, it is that way since quite long :-)
