Translate EXT:form validator in TYPO3 8.7

I've got a problem with translating the client side validator in ext:form in a multi language site en/de/it/fr/cn.

But in english page I have the german translation "Bitte füllen Sie dieses Feld aus", which should not appear here.

I tried all variations of

support.validation.error.email.1221560910

validation.error.1221560910

in typo3conf/ext/site_package/Resources/Private/Language/locallang.xlf but nothing happens with german message...

I've already tried How do you translate EXT:Form forms in TYPO3 CMS 8.7 LTS?

You can translate validation error messages with the following translation keys:

<formDefinitionIdentifier>.validation.error.<elementIdentifier>.<validationErrorCode>
<formDefinitionIdentifier>.validation.error.<validationErrorCode>
validation.error.<elementIdentifier>.<validationErrorCode>
validation.error.<validationErrorCode>

Source: Documentation of the TYPO3 Form Framework, TYPO3 v8

Important: the translation keys for validation messages are only considered if you don't already have a message in the form definition under validationErrorMessages!

So please check your form definition for custom validation messages and remove them there.

you might need to define the current language in your typoscript.

instead of the older condition based on the L-parameter you now need it done with the symphony expressions:

[siteLanguage("title") == "English"]
  config {
      sys_language_uid = 1
      language = en
      locale_all = en_US.UTF-8
      htmlTag_langKey = en
  }
[global]

and you need the correct spelling based on your language definition in the yaml file
