Now the translation on the legend in Dutch is:
Wandelpad of voetpad
Because footway is translated to "Wandelpad of voetpad", this is corrected in the translation site.
This is changed [here](https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Osm:Site.key.table.entry.footway/nl&diff=7162095&oldid=1525896)
Now it is more and less the same.


But that is not "Pad of voetpad" as a Dutch name for the combined line for highway=path and highway=footway if "pad" is used this means "path" not "wandelpad"

Because of the [routing default difference] (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_tags_for_routing/Access-Restrictions) path compared footway and seeing the difference on the map, you could give it the same line, for the combined tags.
![footway](https://www.openstreetmap.org/assets/key/mapnik/footway-f891b401574853a9751f173aee6202fb12f7e50a7edc920dd17dddbc2cda8f1a.png)

The basic description is wrong (english), in the legend, this is now "Footway" but this must be "Path/Footway" to express that both, path and footway is merged, when this is translated to Dutch, then it is "Pad/Voetpad"and now with the new translation "Pad/Wandelpad of voetpad"

That is the problem.
Not the translation, but the basic keyword that is used, footway. For a combined line. That is translated.

footway is mentioned here in the [key.yml](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/blob/dae3dcf87edcfc0648cd0b93b069b0eee67d3ab7/config/key.yml)
Is this footway translated on the main page to Dutch and other languages
If so, the name, "footway" must be "path / footway", then we get the Dutch translation 'Pad / Voetpad" 

But I can be wrong, is this footway used in the code for translation in the legend?
