No translated content / see appendix
by the way: i'm incredibly happy to get an input from somewhere and hope not to have to rebuild the whole site - thank you

which function allows me to cleanly remove the whole VM (including tables) without affecting the rest of the page. I don't want to recreate the whole page in the original.

Usually  the button "Alle Tabellen zurücksetzen und neue installieren" is safe, but don't do anything with the database without a backup of the complete site. And I would suggest to export the database from within phpmyadmin, too. It's just a few mouse clicks to import the database again in case you accidentally mess it up.

As I mentioned earlier, it seems that you have German product descriptions in the English VM database tables. If you look at the source code of your shop pages, you will see that they all load with the en-GB language tag. It's possible to correct it without having to rebuild the site, but we need to locate the exact source of the problem first.

In VM configuration I would temporarily remove the checkmark from 'Nicht übersetzte Programmtexte in Englisch anzeigen'. Makes it easier to see if the language switch works.

Another check you can do is to go to 'Extensions' - 'Module Manager' - switch from 'site' to 'administrator' in the filter dropdown list and publish 'Multilingual Status'. Thereafter you can click on 'Multilanguage Status' in the status bar. If everything is green on the status page, your Joomla multilanguage setup should be correct and you can unpubilish the 'Multilingual Status' module again. If something is red, you should solve that problem first.

i have noticed that the default language of joomla (extensions/languages) is always used for arikel in the category layout and "addtocart" and cart. this is also the case after uninstalling the virtuemarts and reinstalling - i will probably have to rebuild the whole site

does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?

Check multilanguage status as jjk said.
If something is wrong, fix or report.
Unpublish extensions that may cause trouble, especially free extensions that has not been updated for a long time.

If as I suspect you have filled in all the English VM fields in German then all VM messages and labels will be in English

I assume u have installed VM German files?

Then u need to switch to German in the VM lang config and copy all the VM en-gb tables in the DB to the new ( empty?) de-de tables

I think there is a 3rd party plugin installed in your site which is creating the issue.  Try by disabling the 3rd party system plugins one by one.

For better understanding see the "lang" attribute in the html tag of German language. It is always lang="en-gb" irrespective to the language you select.

I got it. The Virtuemart system plugin "Widgetkit Virtuemart" caused the error. WOW - Thank you all for your support! You are great!
And... Jumbo! You are my salvation!

Tausend DANK!
