Possible style mistake? More editors in APA 7

strasma

Hello,

I want to cite a book which has two editors. In APA 7 manual there is a requirement that citation with more than one editor should look like this:
Smith, J. D., & Jones, R. L. (Eds.). But my Zotero keeps writing Smith, J. D., & Jones, R. L. (Ed.).

Why is that? What might be the problem?

Thanks!

APA7 does this correctly for me like so:

"Hancké, B., Rhodes, M., & Thatcher, M. (Eds.). (2007). Beyond varieties of capitalism: Conflict, contradiction, and complementarities in the European economy. Oxford University Press."
"Badura, B., & Schröder, H. (Eds.). (2009). Betriebliches Gesundheitsmanagement: Kosten und Nutzen (2., überarb. Auflage). Springer Medizin."

How are your editors entered in Zotero?

Do other terms (like retrieved or edition) appear in English? Ed. could just be coming from a different translation of APA if you don't have English selected in the document preferences/create bibliography output.

Thank you for your replies. It really seems that the problem is with Czech version (the one I use by default) of the style because when I switched to English the issue resolved itself.

As far as I know we do not have any official translation of APA 7 so it´s just odd.

Yeah, this would take the standard short form plural for editors from the Czech translation for all styles -- I obviously have no expertise there, but my recollection is that there were fairly authoritative "standard" forms for these in Czech (not for APA, but in general).
