Dyre Tjeldvoll commented on DERBY-3375:
---------------------------------------
Thanks for the feedback, Myrna and Knut.
Knut> Regarding the select tablename example in message 42818, would it be
clearer to use all upper case for the SQL keywords?
Most definitely +1 to this one. I must admit I did not understand what the
problem was when I read your first comment. At first I thought the problem was
that the English version had been changed on trunk so that it no longer matched
the 10.3 version which was sent to the translators. But I could not understand
it because I checked, rather diligently in my opinion, that there weren't any
changes on trunk that could be over-written by the translations (I actually
applied the new translations to the revision in which the 10.3 branch was
created and then updated to the HEAD revision. The only problem was that J131
had been commented out which conflicted with the translated version of that
message. (I resolved that manually in the patch). I don't really blame the
translators for not recognizing that the whole sentence is an sql query since
only parts of it is capitalized.
Knut> I'm not sure I have used the correct gender for 'Upgrade'. Most places in
the existing messages it is treated as neuter, but at least one place it is
treated as masculine.
I seem to have a vague recollection from my high-school German class that Nouns
ending with 'e' usually were feminine. But I also seem to remember something
about the such rules not applying to imported foreign Nouns. According to
http://woerterbuch.reverso.net/deutsch-englisch/Upgrade the gender of
'upgrade' is neuter. Which in turn means we probably should correct the places
where it is treated as masculine.
