I think this refers to the nomen-*.c files in the source distribution.
These files provide the translated strings for the GUI. The German
version nomen-de.c is about a factor 100 smaller than e.g. nomen-en.c,
nomen-es.c or nomen-fr.c. So it is really a rather minimal translation.
I once thought of improving this translation, but since then changed to
an en locale ...
