For native english speaking beta users

[Pekka]

If you find any problems in the english language files that are included with latest beta, feel free to comment and correct the problems on this thread. I did those quite fast and I often make mistakes with prepositions, word order etc.

Hahaha,

That SUBJECT line is a little misleading Pekka!! :)

Here in the USA we have MANY that were born here and can't speak or write it correctly!!

Hopefully, the ones that can speak and write it correctly will bring any mistakes to your attention.

EE is turning into an excellent photo/gallery tool. Thank you so much for making it available.

And I thought it was for people using the Beta version of English as we do here in the USA.

Pekka:

I would like to see the word "give" in the phrase "give and read feedback for all exhibitions" on index.php begin with a capital "G."

I believe this phrase appears on the index page when a users chooses not to have feedback enabled for individual exhibits.

Thanks.

Hi Pekka,

I've had a quick look through the Manual with 1.5 Beta 5 FP2 and there are lots of little things, but I haven't spotted any major items yet.

An example would be

IMPORTANT: You must get a successfull result in ftp server test before you can use any EE's upload or copy/move/delete commands.


which probably should read

IMPORTANT: You must get a successfull result in the ftp server test before you can use any of EE's upload or copy/move/delete commands.


This amendment polishes the language a little, but will not really change it's readability.

I'm a journalist and professional writer. If you want me to go through the entire manual and point out these little things, I'll gladly do so, but it's probably easier to do it on an entire document at a time, rather than comments in this thread.

If you want me to do this, comment in here and I'll get in touch with you by email.

Actually, it should be 'successful' with one 'l'.

And I've not yet had a chance to actually download your software and look at the docs there.

But in browsing through the site (and from being an American who has traveled through Europe extensively), I'd say that you have a better grasp of English than a great many Americans :D
