Typo, Grammar hunt. 10k TC / finding (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish)
Hi,

I think I found most of the typos and grammatical errors in TB Wii.

10k for each translation you find with a typo or error in it.

Rules:
1. Do not use a translating machine (google translate, babbelfish)
2. Native speakers only
3. 10k will be awarded for a full fix of a translated sentence/word with a typo
4. If a translation contains multiple errors only 10k will be awarded
5. Be meticulous
6. Be accurate
7. I will update the main post with findings so you don't report them twice

Here are the files in two different formats:
http://www.toribash.com/misc/efigs_strings.ods - Open Office
http://www.toribash.com/misc/efigs_strings.xls - Microsoft Office

Report errors like this:
Keyword: CUSTOMIZATION
Language: UK-English
current translation: Customization
problem: misspelling
correct translation: Customisation

Grammar nazis are more than welcome to join.

Good luck!

EU_FRENCH use "stick Directionnel" instead of "levier de contrôle"

Is this correct?
"poussez le stick Directionnel vers le haut ou vers le bas pendant que vous le tenez"

"quotient" means the same like "verhältnis" but we never would say that. also it is "Sieges-" and not "Sieg-".

hampa can you upload the fixed table? so we can see if there are more mistakes. otherwise it is hard to find more mistakes.

Who says "Quotient"?

Just say "Siegesquote" or "Gewinnquote". Also possible and in my opinion the best translation is "Gewinnrate"

sorry, Tobybash, but sipher is right. it is "Siegesverhältnis".

there are typical words for these terms. you would never say "siegesquote" or "Gewinnquote". you would know that, if you would play on consoles :P

1st: He said "Siegesquotient"
2nd: I play on consoles.
3rd: Better german would be "Gewinnrate" or something like this.

Who the fuck says "Siegesverhältnis". I will ask some friends.

Maybe "Erfolgsquote"?

Siegverhältnis is as good as Siegesquotient. In my opinion you don't need to change that.
But the rest like Gewinnquote....mhm don't say that xD

Correct, if what "le" refers to is explained before.
