      The uppercase of ß, (German Sharp S) is translated as 'SS' which is
      incorrect.

      The uppercase of ß (capital sharp S) needs to translate to a single character
      ß, in order to be compliant with national law. Recently, (June 2017),
      official German orthography states that upper S sharp must use a single
      character.
