Hi Vladimir,

I have reviewed PR #6707.
While I haven't compiled or tested the changes yet, the translations look
correct for French.

Regards,
Antonio Gomes Rodrigues

> My understanding is that common UI guidelines (GNOME HIG, Apple HIG, the
> Microsoft style guide) recommend affirmative statements for checkboxes,
> radio buttons and tooltips, and reserve the question form for dialogs that
> actually ask the user something. So genuine dialog prompts keep their ?
> (for example save?, revert_project?, the cancel_* confirms); only the
> control and tooltip labels were changed. I ran into these excess question
> marks while adding the Russian translation in PR #6706, and this change
> carries the same cleanup across the other locales.
>
> For most locales this was a mechanical change — just dropping the ? (and,
> for Spanish, the opening ¿, and the full-width ? in CJK files).
> *But in some locales the string was written as a full question sentence, so
> I had to reword the grammar into an affirmative form. Those rewrites need a
> native-speaker check.*
>
> Languages where grammar was changed (please verify):
>
> * *Least confident, review most welcome*: Korean (ko), Turkish (tr), Polish
> (pl), Chinese (zh_CN)
> * Reworded as well, but I'm more confident: German (de), Spanish (es),
> French (fr), Japanese (ja)
>
> The main spots are the CSV Data Set tooltips (recycle, stopThread,
> quotedData), the Debug Sampler / Debug PostProcessor tooltips, and a few
> core keys (if_controller_evaluate_all, ldap_trust_all,
> clear_cookies_per_iter, sampler_on_error_action, include_path).

> If you are a native speaker (or know one) please take a look and comment on
> the PR.
> The diff is the quickest way to review the text; to see the labels in
> context, you can run the GUI:
>
> git clone https://github.com/apache/jmeter.git
> cd jmeter
> gh pr checkout 6707      # or stay on master to compare against the current
> wording
> ./gradlew runGui
>
> Thanks,
