Again, I've seen both, but since you say "en meter," "två meter," "ett kilo," "två kilo," "ett gram," "två gram," I guess "en byte," "två byte" would be okay, but it still sounds odd to me.

Guess I'm not going to get anywhere with this, but I still think postnummer leads the user to believe that this is a Swedish, 5-digit postal code.

Let's see if someone else has any ideas. Well, just the fact that the English original uses a compound is enough, IMO, but sure, let's see. I wrote some to django-se about it.

Lexin's best translation for score was "poängsiffra" or "poängtal." Not very satisfying either, so I guess we'll only be able to decide when we see it in use--I only use FreeComments, so I never get to see that part. -- Ludvig Ericson --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django I18N" group.
