I use lyx and latex-beamer to generate my presentations. In lyx I can chose "Beispiel" to generate an example (In the lyx screen there it is called "Beispiel" in green color, but in the generated pdf it's called Example.

As workaround I export the created file to latex, and replaxe then every example to Beispiel to get the desired result.

Beamer uses babel to do the translations (I think). I suspect this is a bug in beamer (failure to flag the "Example" heading for translation?), but I don't know enough about babel to know. It would probably be a good idea if you reported this to Till Tantau, the author of the beamer package.

Meanwhile, as a workaround, you can put the following two lines in the preamble of your LyX document (perhaps create a new template containing the lines, so that you do not have to retype them each time):

\newtheorem{exa}[theorem]{Beispiel}
\renewenvironment{example}{\begin{exa}}{\end{exa}}

(Credit where credit is due: I "liberated" this from the wiki at http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/I18nLabels.) If you want a period after "Beispiel", you will need to put one in the first line (inside the closing brace). If you also use the beamer "Examples" environment, repeat the two lines above but in the second pair change "Beispiel" to "Beispiele", change "exa" to something else (say "exas"), and change "example" to "examples".

Cheers,
