Description Christian Rose 2004-08-24 08:43:06 UTC 
#: gweather/gweather.schemas.in.h:11
msgid "Pressure units"

#: gweather/gweather.schemas.in.h:12
msgid "Speed units"

#: gweather/gweather.schemas.in.h:13
msgid "Temperature units"

Since each of these messages only refer to a particular unit name, they
shouldn't perhaps be pluralized.

Perhaps they should only say:

msgid "Pressure unit"
msgid "Speed unit"
msgid "Temperature unit"

Please note that there is currently a string freeze though.
Comment 2 Danielle Madeley 2004-10-10 12:01:45 UTC 
Hmm, I'm not 'unit' is any more correct then 'units'. Then again, I have crap
grammar, any thoughts?
Comment 3 Danielle Madeley 2004-10-30 15:11:02 UTC 
Christian, as it was pointed out to me, you are correct for consistency reasons.
I'll fix this up at some point.
Comment 4 Kjartan Maraas 2005-01-04 01:14:28 UTC 
String freeze is closing in on us...
Comment 5 Christoffer Olsen 2005-01-04 02:02:58 UTC 
Fixed, committed :)
