I know, but if I add a translation to the override section that is used in a plugin and shown in the Backend, then the translation won't work. It only works if I add it to the upper section that will be overwritten when I update.

Best regards Mike")* It should work, I think that you have an error in your override part, for example a quote " not closed, or something else. Try to enable the debug language in the joomla configuration, and you will see the error and you will see too that the language file override is loaded.
